Solutions for Your Heavy & Oversized Cargo
oversized, or wide-load machinery.
A flat rack container is a specialized type of shipping container designed for transporting heavy, oversized, or irregularly shaped cargo that cannot fit inside a standard container. It consists of a strong steel platform base with fixed or collapsible end walls and no side walls or roof, allowing cargo to extend beyond the container’s width or height limits if necessary.
Flat racks are ideal for machinery, vehicles, construction materials, industrial equipment, and large pipes or reels. They are built to ISO standards, making them suitable for intermodal transport by ship, rail, or truck. Cargo is typically secured using lashing rings and chains to ensure stability during transit. With their open and versatile design, flat rack containers provide an efficient solution for moving bulky or heavy goods that require special handling.
