Open Top Container: A Smart Choice for Exporters

An Open Top Container is a special type of shipping container without a solid roof. Instead, it uses a removable tarpaulin, making it ideal for transporting over-height cargo that cannot be loaded through standard container doors. Exporters use open top containers for machinery, heavy equipment, steel rods, timber, and large industrial parts.

The biggest advantage is easy top loading using cranes or forklifts. This saves time, reduces handling damage, and allows safe transportation of awkwardly shaped items. Open top containers come in 20 ft and 40 ft sizes, and are made of durable steel to withstand harsh weather during sea transport.

India’s growing industrial exports — especially from Punjab, Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Tamil Nadu — benefit from open top container logistics, particularly when exporting to Europe, Middle East, USA, and Africa.

Whether you're exporting turbines, pipes, or marble blocks, open top containers offer flexibility and security. Many Indian ports and ICDs (Inland Container Depots) provide services for open top cargo, making it a reliable choice for heavy and tall shipments.
