Full-length doors down one side — open the whole unit at once. Also called open-sided, side-door or side-loading. 20ft & 40ft, sale or hire, UK-wide HIAB delivery.
Call Phil: 020 8226 0007A side-opening container has doors running the full length of one side, so you can access and load the whole unit from the side rather than reaching in through the standard end doors. It's also known as an open-sided, open-side, side-door or side-loading container — all the same thing.
That full-length access makes a real difference for retail, market stalls, plant and equipment, and any storage where end-only doors are a nuisance. Phil supplies side-opening containers for sale and hire in 20ft and 40ft, delivered UK-wide on a HIAB lorry — one person to deal with from enquiry to drop-off.

External dimensions shown — the same footprint and stacking strength as a standard container. High cube (extra height) may be available; ask Phil.
Retail & market stalls
The whole side opens up as a shopfront — secure steel box by night, open stall by day. Pairs well with a pop-up shop conversion.
Plant & equipment
Drive a forklift straight in or load long items along the side — no shuffling everything through the end.
Exhibitions & events
Quick to open out and set up, secure to lock down. Available for hire for short runs.
Easy-access storage
When reaching past everything from the end doors is a daily pain, full side access fixes it.
