Side-opening shipping containers can be accessed through additional doors positioned on the side. They provide superior access to stored goods, with doors that simply fold out of the way when in use and return to their closed position for transport and secure storage.
Our side-opening shipping containers are equipped with tie-backs to prevent accidental closing, and the high-quality locks and fittings offer an extra layer of security. These containers can be moved using forklifts, allowing for loading and unloading just like a standard shipping container.
These containers can also be repurposed to hold shopfront displays, or serve as information or sales kiosks at trade shows or festivals. Many business owners even choose to modify a side-opening shipping container, transforming it into a primary retail space.
Our containers can also be customised with a wide range of options including side and roller doors, windows, shutters, skylights, storage racks, work benches, adjustable shelving, air conditioning, whirly birds and ventilators, electrical fit-outs, access ramps, external security bars, security locking, and customised painting.

Tilt tray truck delivery
Side loader truck delivery
Crane truck delivery
The tilt tray truck is ideal for delivery to many locations. The container is loaded on the truck in the direction requested ensuring the unit will be in the correct position once delivered. The truck must reverse to the delivery point where the tray of the truck tilts to the ground and the container slides off the back.
6m Tilt Tray Clearance Requirements:
The side loader truck delivers the container by picking it up from the trucks tray at each end of the unit and lowering it onto the site directly next to the trucks’ tray. This method is ideal for delivery of containers that need to fit into constricted spaces. It is important to consider which way the container should be loaded onto the truck as it can only be unloaded from the right hand (drivers’) side.

12m Side Loader Clearance Requirements:
This delivery method is used when neither a tilt tray or side loader truck can access the site. Crane truck delivery allows for containers to be delivered over obstructions such as fences.
