The philosophy of making containers has been to integrate means to transport goods; But it should be kept in mind that due to the existence of various manufacturers, the dimensions of the container may differ by a few centimeters, which of course is not very important. The maximum weight (tonnage) of loading the container is also determined based on the CSC Plate of the container. But in addition to the tonnage of the container, the ship and the line in which the container is to be transported should be considered.

Open Side container
For many years, goods cannot be moved easily without containers. Containers are widely used in the transportation industry, and small and large containers are used in land and sea transportation, each of which has a different application. One of the most used models of containers is the side-opening container that we want to talk about on this page. We also examine the advantages, technical specifications and standard dimensions of the Open Side Container.
It is very important that we have enough information about each type of container so that we can have an easier shipping plan and deliver the goods safely to their destination; Otherwise, if we use an inappropriate container to transport our goods, we have to bear a lot of costs to compensate for the loss.
When most people look at containers on a ship, they just see a few rectangular boxes of different colors; But they don’t know that those containers may look similar, but they are different and each one has different uses; Such as refrigerated container, tanker container, flat rack container, open top container, etc. Open side container is another type of container that is used to transport dry goods.
Maybe you have seen open-side containers on the roads or in warehouses, but you didn’t pay attention to them.
Open-side containers have the same structure as standard containers; But with the difference that in addition to having two doors in the front and back, they also have two doors on the side. In fact, their door opens from the side. Therefore, these containers are used to load goods that cannot be loaded from the top of the container and must be loaded from the side with a forklift or a special crane; Such as when the loading area has a short roof and loading from the roof is not possible or when a crane is not available to place loads from the roof.
Since the open side container has a special design; For this reason, it has wide applications. Of course, the use of these containers is mostly in places where the container is placed in a fixed place and does not move; In other words, they are usually used in places where there is a need for a fixed container.
Open-side containers, like regular containers, are produced in two sizes: 20 feet (6 meters long) and 40 feet (12 meters long). Of course, each of them can have different characteristics. For example, most of these containers have side doors; But some have special protections (Stanchion) to be covered by tarpaulin.
The fact is that this type of container is rarer and less expensive than standard containers; Because they have a special use. Of course, this type of container is also used for storage or urban stores (mobile stores and restaurants) and these days we see them being used in these types of uses all over the world.
Open Side containers have different models, each of which has different uses. But in general, it can be said that it has three models:
- Open side container with two doors
- Open side container with four doors
- Tented open side container
What are the features of the open side container?
The most important feature of an open-side container is that because it has a standard size, it can be moved by a variety of means (such as ships, trains, trucks, etc.). But this container has other advantages:
- The doors have a box lock and are highly secure.
- Although the walls of the container are the same as the door; But water does not penetrate it.
- Loading, unloading and counting in these containers are done quickly.
- The flooring of open side containers is made of plywood.
- You can use forklifts and fork jacks to unload the load.
- They are also used as warehouses for permanent and temporary storage.
- The side doors can be opened up to 270 degrees.
Another feature of Open Side containers is better access to the goods in the container. In normal containers that have a small door, after placing all the goods, if we need any goods, we have to empty the container. But if you have done the loading in the opening side container, you can access all the goods very soon.
Also, in open-side containers, you can make better use of the container space and you can even partition the space. Therefore, they can be turned into a restaurant, room, office, cafe, etc.
What are the uses of the open side container?
Due to their special design, open side containers have special applications and have differences in construction with standard containers. In general, the uses of an open-side container can be summarized as follows:
(1) Conversion of container usage
As mentioned above, open side containers do not have longitudinal (side) walls. For this reason, its place can be filled with glass or shutters and used for other uses; Such as kiosks, cafes, restaurants, aid centers, stores, etc.
(2) Fast unloading and loading
Due to the fact that the loading and unloading doors are on the sides of the container in the open-side container, the speed of loading and unloading in them is higher than that of standard containers; Because there is more access to goods.
(3) Warehousing and storage of goods
Since it is easier and faster to load and unload goods in an open-side container, this type of container is also used for storage. Also, accessing the goods in this container is easier than other containers, and the doors of these containers are equipped with the safest and best locks, which makes them highly secure.
Types of open side containers
Like other types of containers, open-side containers have different types, each of which has a different use. But all in all, they can be divided into the following three categories:
- Openable container with two doors
- Collapsible container with four doors
- Openable tent container
Openable side container with two doors, has two doors in the middle of the longitudinal wall; That is, the whole wall is not covered with a door. This container is mostly used for transporting supplies and small goods.
The opening side container with four doors has four doors that are connected two by two and cover the entire wall of the container. This model is the most common type of side-opening container and is mostly used for transporting large goods and supplies.
Unlike the previous models, the tent-opening side container has no door in its longitudinal wall; It means that both sides of the container are open and covered with canvas tents. These tents are held using very strong hooks so that the products in the container do not move during movement.
The price of open side container
The open side container is usually available in two types of 20 feet and 40 feet; But in general, the number of open berth containers is less than the standard standard containers. But about the price, it should be said that, like any other product, a single price cannot be announced for the purchase of an Open Side container; Because the conditions of each container are different and there are various parameters that affect the price of an open side container; such as two doors or four doors, with doors or tents, production brand, year of production, body material, manufacturing company, etc.
Another parameter that affects the price of the open side container is the currency price; Because these containers are usually imported and are bought and sold at the price of dollars or other international currencies. Therefore, you should purchase containers based on your budget; But if you are looking for a cheaper purchase, you can also use a second-hand open-side container.
Factors affecting the price of used open side containers
We all know that the price of used goods is usually lower than new goods. Therefore, the price of a used open-side container is lower than that of a new container. Of course, being a second-hand container does not always mean its price is low. If the purchase is made in an unprincipled way, sometimes the price of a second-hand open-side container may cost you as much as a new container.
So, you should be familiar with the various factors affecting their prices. As mentioned, many parameters affect the price of second-hand Open Side containers, the most important of which are the following:
- Two doors or four doors
- With a door or tent
- Production Year
- Manufacturer
- Dimensions and size
- Container health
- Container body material
- exchange rate
- etc
Another important point is that in order to buy an Open Side container, you must visit it in person and check the health of the body and its documents in order to make a good purchase. All in all, we suggest that you contact the experts at Salian Container and get more detailed information about the price and terms of sale of used open-side containers.
