Get maximum loading flexibility with our 40ft One Trip Flat Rack Container — manufactured to ISO shipping standards and used only once on its original single export voyage, meaning it reaches you in near-new, cosmetically excellent condition without the “new-build” price tag of a factory-fresh unit.
Unlike a standard enclosed shipping container, a flat rack has no side walls, open-sided shipping container 40ft giving you complete side, top, and end access. That makes it the right choice for cargo that simply won’t fit through a standard container door: plant machinery, vehicles, generators, steel beams, timber, pipework, and other oversized or irregularly shaped loads.
A one trip container has completed a single loaded international voyage from the factory to the UK. It hasn’t been through years of stacking, weathering, or repeated handling like a standard used container, so you get:
– Minimal cosmetic wear — light surface marks at most
– Full structural integrity with no repairs or patch welds
– A significantly lower price than a brand-new, never-shipped unit
– CSC (Container Safety Convention) plate still valid for onward transport
– Open-sided design— no side walls, allowing side, top and end loading of oversized or out-of-gauge cargo
– Collapsible or fixed end frames — flat rack container with collapsible ends fold flat so empty units can be stacked compactly for storage or return transport
– Heavy-duty Corten steel construction — built to withstand demanding loads and UK weather conditions
–Lashing rings throughout — positioned in the side rails, floor, and corner posts for secure tie-down of cargo
– 28mm marine plywood flooring — durable, load-rated base suitable for forklifts and heavy equipment
–ISO corner castings— compatible with standard container handling, lifting, and stacking equipment
– CSC plated — certified for onward road, rail, and sea transport
