About this reference

The 20-foot format allows a separate reserve with frequently used items apart from rear storage. A simple furniture or goods layout helps make use of the available length. The Open Top model’s upper access changes how the load is introduced. Compare the object, lifting equipment and actual opening; cover, roof bows and securing need specifying. A load extending above the roof is not described by shell dimensions alone. Nominal external model dimensions are 6.058 × 2.438 × 2.591 m (length × width × height); usable measurements of the actual unit need confirmation.

Used, excellent condition offers a balance between reuse and a presentable appearance. Actual wear depends on the unit. Pay attention to doors, seals, flooring and repairs already performed when comparing the offer with the finish you expect. The blue colour identifies this variant; request confirmation of its appearance and any paint repairs. Included equipment must be listed in the offer. Request recent photos of the proposed unit: catalogue images illustrate the configuration.

This container for your project

Container 20 ft Open Top · Used · excellent condition · Blue. For this reference, match your intended use with the access required and the details to include in the offer.

Possible uses

  • Loading from above
  • Items difficult to pass through doors
  • Projects requiring suitable lifting

What to consider

Top access needs suitable lifting equipment; a load extending above the roof needs separate assessment. Allow a handling route in addition to the space occupied by this format.

To compare other configurations in the same format, see the catalogue’s 20-foot containers.

Plan the access

Allow lifting access above the container and enough room for handling. Give the full postcode, post town and building number or name; the first postcode group alone does not locate the entrance.

Before choosing this unit

  1. Confirm the top opening and the condition of roof bows, cover and securing points. To prepare these choices, use the dimensions and openings guide.

  2. For this used unit in excellent condition, have door closure, seals and any repairs checked. Follow the steps in the used-container inspection guide.

  3. Request recent photos of the actual unit, its identification and an offer listing included equipment and planned repairs.

Frequently asked questions

Dimensions, access, storage and delivery: practical answers for your project.

When should I choose an Open Top instead of a standard?

An Open Top offers loading from above for an item that is difficult to pass through the doors. This 20-foot model provides about 32.5 m³ below the reference internal height. The top opening, lifting method and cover must suit the load; height extending beyond the roof is not included in this volume.

Which openings can I use to load an Open Top?

The end-door opening is typically 2.338 × 2.280 m (width × height). The top opening provides another loading direction using a crane or suitable equipment. Include roof bows, tarpaulin or cover and load securing in your preparation; door dimensions are not roof-opening dimensions.

What are the dimensions and floor area of this 20-foot container?

Outside (length × width × height): 6.058 × 2.438 × 2.591 m, occupying about 14.8 m². Typical inside dimensions (length × width × height): 5.895 × 2.350 × 2.340 m, with about 13.9 m² of floor area and 32.5 m³. The door opening is 2.338 × 2.280 m (width × height), separate from the internal dimensions. These are model reference dimensions; manufacturing and equipment can cause small differences. The reference top opening is 5.338 × 2.230 m (length × width).

What does “Used · excellent condition” mean for this container?

Excellent condition here describes a used container with limited visible wear and possible handling marks. For a presentable project or frequent access, consider door operation, seals and the floor. Photographs of the offered unit show these points; the catalogue illustration does not show its history.

How should I protect goods beneath an Open Top cover?

The tarpaulin or cover is part of the load’s protection; fastenings, joints and roof bows need regular attention. Avoid introducing damp goods and packaging, and protect sensitive goods from temperature changes and condensation. The cover does not create an air-conditioned space. Its type and storage conditions need to suit your contents.

Does the price include delivery and taxes?

This configuration costs £2,132 excluding tax for one container. Transport, unloading and any fit-out are quoted separately for your request. Currency and price follow the selected country; the proposal sets out applicable taxes and the complete amount.

What should I prepare to request a project quote for United Kingdom?

The container occupies about 14.8 m², with an external base of 6.058 × 2.438 m. That area excludes door swing and space for the truck and handling equipment. Prepare a stable, level location and provide the postcode or area, narrow passages, turns, slopes, obstacles and available unloading equipment. These details support transport pricing and selection of a suitable vehicle. Give the full postcode, post town and building number or name; the first postcode group alone does not locate the entrance. Postcode: both groups of the complete postcode. Format example: SW1A 1AA. Use your site’s code, not this example. Include the building or site name when it helps identify the correct entrance. State the space available for manoeuvring and leaving after placement. The proposal should confirm transport, unloading, availability and timing for this site.

What happens after I submit my postcode request?

Your selection and delivery details are sent through Quotbox to approach suppliers. They are used to propose a unit and detail the container, taxes, transport and unloading. You can compare that proposal and refine your project before accepting it. The form is a no-obligation enquiry with no automatic purchase or payment.
