An open top replaces the fixed steel roof with removable bows and a tarpaulin, and adds a header bar at the door end that swings out of the way. Between them you can load from directly overhead or push something taller than the door through the end.
What it’s for
- Machinery and plant that won’t fit through a standard door opening
- Bulk material loaded by excavator or front-end loader
- Scrap, spoil and waste handling
- Long or awkward loads craned in from above

Understand the trade-off
A tarpaulin is not a steel roof. It sheds rain when correctly fitted and tensioned, but it is not a long-term weatherproof seal, it degrades in UV, and it is the part that will need replacing. Don’t buy an open top for dry storage — buy it because you need to load from above.
Condition
Used stock. Tarp condition varies; we note its state and photograph it before dispatch. Ask if you need a new tarp fitted.
Image shown is representative of this container type, not the individual unit you will receive. Tarpaulin and bow condition varies between units — we photograph your actual container at the depot and send you the photos before dispatch.
