Flat Rack Containers

Flat Rack Shipping Containers for Sale

Flat rack shipping containers are the perfect transportation option for large, awkward, or oddly shaped goods that won’t fit in a general-purpose container or on an open-top container. If your cargo seems impossible to transport, a flat rack shipping container could be the answer you’ve been seeking.

Flat rack shipping containers consist of a flat bed with either fixed or collapsible ends, or no ends at all. The efficiency of standardized shipping relies on containers being easily transported from ship to port to truck or train, and oversized or difficult goods are no exception. Our company is situated in an industry built on innovative ideas and continues to innovate itself every day.

Oversized cables, drums, metal sheets, steel coils, wood, trucks, heavy equipment, large industrial parts, construction materials, and even boats are just some of the items that a flat rack shipping container can transport. Whether you need to transport a yacht, a water tank, or a bulldozer, flat rack shipping containers are likely the right container for the job.

Amazingly, flat rack containers can still be stacked. While they don’t have fixed side walls or load-carrying structures, they still have standardized weight-bearing corner fittings at the top and bottom of the container, allowing them to be safely stacked if the load is wide, rather than high, and easily handled.

Flat Rack Fixed End Containers

Flat rack fixed end containers are high-loading capacity containers with a floor and two fixed end walls, but no side walls. They are used for oversized wide loads, allowing cargo to be secured and for the flat racks to be stacked on top of each other easily and securely.

Flat Rack Collapsible Containers

Similar to flat rack fixed end containers, flat rack collapsible containers have a floor, no side walls, and two end walls. The difference is that the end walls can be collapsed if required, making them useful for shipping overlength cargo and saving space by stacking into a small space with the end walls collapsed during storage or repositioning.

Platform Flat Rack Containers

Platform flat rack shipping containers, also known as Bolster Containers, don’t have side or end walls but are made up entirely of a floor structure that can withstand a high loading capacity, enabling heavy weight to be stacked in a small area.
