Home > 20ft > Side Opening General Purpose

At ABC Container Hire And Sales, we understand that every customer has unique shipping requirements. That's why we offer a range of shipping container sizes and types to meet your needs. One of our most popular containers is the 20ft Side Opening General Purpose container.

This container is ideal for customers who need to load and unload cargo quickly and easily. The side opening feature means that the entire side of the container can be opened for easy access. This is particularly useful for customers who need to load large or awkwardly shaped items that wouldn't fit through the standard end doors of a container.

In addition to its convenient side opening, the 20ft Side Opening General Purpose container is also incredibly versatile. It can be used for a wide range of shipping and storage applications, including transportation of heavy machinery, storage of construction materials, and even as a mobile office or workshop. Its compact size makes it easy to transport and maneuver, while its sturdy construction ensures that your cargo will be safe and secure during transit.

Despite its many benefits, the 20ft Side Opening General Purpose container is not significantly more expensive than its 10ft counterpart. In fact, the extra space and versatility that the 20ft container offers make it a better value for customers who need more storage or shipping capacity.

At ABC Container Hire And Sales, we are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality containers at competitive prices. Whether you need a 10ft or 20ft container, a side opening or end opening container, we have the perfect solution for your shipping and storage needs.
