Side Opening Trailer Details

For cargo that needs protection, or for operators who want to quickly and safely unload from either side, the Side Opening Trailer does the job. It provides the greatest flexibility for multiple freight types, and is built to fit 2 chep pallets side by side. This trailer can also transport heavy or dense cargo, including irregular freight such as steel coils and machinery.

Available in standard heights of 9’6 and 9’10, both versions are compatible with the SCF mezzanine deck system. This system allows for flexible freight heights.

For loading and unloading, steel side doors allow access for fast HSE compliant operation, minimising required labour time to operate.

Utilising an SCF skel, customers can quickly change out a Side Opening container and hire a Tautliner, Refrigerated Container or Pallet Wide container to suit different cargo types.

Options

Vented system (for produce, gas cylinders or similar products)
Mezzanine deck system
Lightweight models
Alternative lashing systems
