At ABC Container Hire And Sales, we understand that finding the right shipping container for your needs is crucial. That's why we offer a wide range of options, including used 40ft open top general purpose containers.

There are several benefits to choosing a 40ft container over a smaller size. For starters, you'll have more space to work with. This is especially important if you're transporting larger items or need to store a lot of inventory.

The open top design of these containers also makes them incredibly versatile. You can easily load and unload items from the top, which can save you time and hassle. Plus, it allows for items that are taller than the standard height of a shipping container to fit inside.

Of course, cost is always a consideration when it comes to shipping containers. While it's true that 10ft containers aren't necessarily cheaper than 20ft ones, a used 40ft container can still be a cost-effective solution. By choosing a used container, you can save money while still getting a high-quality product.

Overall, a used 40ft open top general purpose container is a great choice for anyone who needs ample space and versatility.
