20ft Open Side Shipping Container – One Trip – With Side Doors

Description

Product Description
This 20-foot open side shipping container provides a secure and accessible storage or transport solution. It is a “one-trip” unit, meaning it has been used for a single delivery from its point of manufacture . This container includes full-length side doors in addition to standard rear doors, allowing for versatile loading and unloading options . Its construction from corrosion-resistant steel is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, protecting the contents from the elements .
Key Features

One-Trip Condition: This container has completed only one voyage, resulting in a structure with minimal wear and a “like-new” condition .

Dual-Access Design: It is equipped with both standard rear doors and a full-length opening side, offering flexibility for various logistics needs .

Weather-Resistant Construction: The unit is fabricated from Corten steel and features water-sealed doors to help maintain a wind and watertight interior .

Secure Locking Mechanisms: Rear and side doors come with lockable door handles and are designed to accommodate standard shipping container locks .

Integrated Forklift Pockets: Built-in forklift pockets on the base facilitate easy handling and positioning of the empty container .

Ventilated Design: Top-mounted vents are integrated into the structure to promote airflow and reduce moisture buildup inside the container .

Detailed Description
The 20ft Open Side Shipping Container is engineered to improve operational efficiency where standard end-door access is limiting. Unlike a standard container, the full-width side doors open to provide unobstructed lateral access to the entire length of the interior . This design is particularly useful for loading items that cannot be easily maneuvered through rear doors, such as long lumber, pipes, industrial machinery, or bulk materials .
As a “one-trip” unit, this container offers the structural integrity of a new unit at a more accessible price point . It has been used for a single international shipment and has not been subjected to the cumulative wear of multiple voyages or years of service. The condition includes fully functional doors, a sound floor, and intact corner castings.
The container is built to ISO standards, ensuring it is suitable for intermodal transport and stackable when loaded correctly . The heavy-gauge steel frame and corrugated walls provide inherent strength. Whether used for on-site storage, secure job site material containment, or as a base for a modular build, the side-door feature provides a practical advantage by reducing the time and effort required to access stored goods .
