Top open container (OT open top container)
Open top containers have an open top covered by a tarp instead of a solid roof. This enables oversized cargo such as timber scrap metal and used machinery to be loaded from the top. Open top containers normally also have end doors, like closed containers, to give flexibility for loading and unloading.01
Having an open top shipping container can make storing and transporting over-sized or oddly-shaped items less of a hassle as you aren't restricted to the normal confines of regular shipping containers.
They are more expensive and less available than standard containers, as they are in lower demand and require more maintenance
