20′ Open Top High Cube Container (OT HC)

About the 20′ OT HC container

20′ Open Top High Cube container combines a removable tarpaulin roof with increased High Cube height. It is designed for tall cargo, crane-loaded cargo or cargo that is difficult to load through the doors. Without roof bows, the vertical clearance may be greater than the nominal internal side height. However, this container type is relatively uncommon, so the availability of the specific equipment and carrier approval should be confirmed before planning the shipment.
