Open-Top Container

Definition

An Open-Top Container is a type of shipping container with an open roof instead of a solid top panel. It is designed to accommodate cargo that exceeds the height limitations of a standard container or requires top-loading and unloading. The open-top configuration allows for the transportation of oversized or bulky items that cannot fit within the enclosed space of a regular container.
