The most suitable type of container for the transport of heavy machinery depends on various factors, such as the size, weight, shape, and fragility of the machinery. Here are some options:
Flat rack container: A flat rack container is a container with a flat platform and no side walls, which allows for easy loading and unloading of heavy and bulky items. It is suitable for machinery that cannot fit into a standard container or that requires loading from the top or sides.
Open-top container: An open-top container is similar to a standard container but has no roof, which allows for easy loading and unloading of machinery from the top. It is suitable for machinery that is too tall to fit into a standard container.
High-cube container: A high-cube container is a standard container with extra height (usually 9'6" instead of 8'6"), which allows for taller machinery to fit inside. It is suitable for machinery that is not too wide or too heavy.
Platform container: A platform container is similar to a flat rack container but has sides, which provide some protection for the machinery. It is suitable for machinery that is not too tall and requires some protection during transport.
Open-side container: An open-side container is similar to a standard container but has one or more sides that can be opened, which allows for easy loading and unloading of machinery from the side. It is suitable for machinery that cannot fit into a standard container or that requires loading from the side
