Flat Racks & Bolster Containers

Flat Rack & Bolster Containers belong to the platform style family of containers that are used for transporting oversized, oddly shaped and awkwardly handled cargo such as industrial machinery & equipment, construction materials and commercial vehicles. They have also been known to be repurposed as makeshift bridges on properties in rural Australia. 

Features

  • Come with two walls at either end of the container which allow for increased load capacity and the ability to secure cargo.
  • Low profile and small footprint which saves quite a lot of space when not in use compared to standard shipping containers.

Sizes available

Flack Racks & Bolsters come in either 20ft or 40ft with a steel or wooden deck and in a variety of designs and configurations depending on their intended purpose.

types available

  • Collapsible End Wall Flat Racks come with two walls at either end of the container that can be collapsed onto the container either on top or flush with the deck making them useful for a variety of purposes and while continuing to minimise the space required for storage when not in use.

  • Bolster Containers are platforms which have no end walls reducing the height and weight of the container whilst maintaining high load capacity.

Delivery Options

You have a number of delivery options when you choose a 10ft shipping container. The most important thing to know is that you need to choose a delivery method that suits the access to your site or property.

A Tilt tray truck is the most cost effective delivery method, but you do need the space for the truck to drive out after it slides the container into place.

Using a HIAB truck – which is a truck with a crane mount on either the front or the rear of the tray, as the crane arm can lift and position the container into place very precisely.

A Sideloader is best suited where there is limited space in front or behind where the container is to be located. The container is offloaded onto the ground on the drivers’ side of the vehicle. When the container is unloaded it lands between the two outrigger feet of the side loader, parallel to and approximately half a metre from the side of the truck. Perfect for delivering or relocating heavy, loaded and heavy shipping containers.

Delivery can be organised within a few days, subject to transport availability. Each container is shipped directly from the manufacturer to our Sydney depot. Please note, some scuffing may occur during transport, which is typical due to the shipping process.
