One of the preferred means of transportation for moving large volumes of merchandise worldwide is ships. Their storage capacity and the type of containers they have are two major reasons why they are the ideal transportation method for many companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because the merchandise being transported is varied and may require specific storage, there are different types of containers that ensure the quality and well-being of the products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the 8 most common container options for maritime transport \ud83d\udea2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dry Van Container <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These are the most commonly used containers as they can transport almost all types of cargo. They are airtight, non-ventilated, and can be stacked up to 8 levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High Cube Container<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Their height allows them to transport bulky and oversized loads. Additionally, being constructed with corten steel makes them especially strong, secure, and resistant to the demands of a maritime journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open Top Container <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These containers have the peculiarity of being open at the top and covered with a tarpaulin. They are ideal for cargo that is too large to fit into a container or too heavy and difficult to load.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open Side Container <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These containers were specially designed to facilitate the handling of cargo through the side doors of the container. They are usually used for loads with large length dimensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flat Rack Container <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These containers are very easy to recognize because they do not have a roof or side walls. That’s why the cargo transported in them (machines, vehicles, etc.) is secured with chains or straps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tank Container<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tank containers are designed to transport bulk liquids, so they are tanks contained within a series of steel beams. Additionally, they can also be stacked and travel safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bulk Container <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These containers are ideal for transporting hazardous liquids such as toxic, corrosive, or highly flammable chemicals, but they can also carry substances such as milk, beer, wine, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reefer Container <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These are containers equipped with a refrigerating engine that allows the transport of temperature-sensitive goods. Examples include dairy products, fruits, vegetables, meats, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
