OOG container is an indispensable component of container transportation. With the rapid development of China’s economy after the reform and opening up, the continuous growth of the manufacturing industry has generated transportation demand around the transportation of major equipment such as infrastructure and environmental engineering. The growth rate of China’s equipment export volume is astonishing. With the development of international trade, the demand for OOG container shipping from China to Thailand/Indonesia and other places is also increasing. Next, Focus Global Logistics will introduce the relevant knowledge of OOG container transportation.

Classification of OOG cabinets

OOG containers mainly refer to OOG containers used to load OOG cargo. Mainly divided into: open-top container; flatrack container; tank container and so on.

OPENTOP CONTAINER

Open-top container, also known as open-top container, is a container without a rigid roof, and other components other than the roof are similar to dry cargo containers. The open top box can be loaded with goods from the top, especially suitable for oversized goods such as machinery. The steel open top box has two specifications of 20 feet and 40 feet.

FLATRACK CONTAINER

The flatrack container has no roof and sides, and is characterized by loading and unloading from the side of the container. The main cargo loaded in the flatrack container: super long, super wide, super high large machinery and equipment and heavy cargo. Steel flatrack containers are available in 20 feet and 40 feet sizes.

TANK CONTAINER

Tank containers are mainly loaded with goods: mainly loaded with liquid chemicals: such as chemical products; oil products for industrial use, kerosene, fuel oil, gas (generally the cargo’s own box, that is, SOC box).

Understand the customer’s cargo parameters (preferably with photos), shipping time and delivery date. Fully estimate the operational difficulty and fully account for the costs to be incurred.

The characteristics of operating OOG container

OOG containers themselves have fewer carriers, and the market demand is also smaller. It is difficult to operate and the links are complicated. The entire transportation process needs to be confirmed by multiple links before it can be undertaken. It is mainly necessary to confirm the container, price and shipping space in advance. Prices vary greatly and are not comparable. Relatively speaking, the value of goods carried by OOG containers is generally higher.

Open-top container: confirm the weight, size, loading and unloading requirements of the goods in advance, and the owner’s requirements for the box body.

Flatrack container: confirm the weight, size, loading and unloading requirements of the goods in advance, the cargo owner’s requirements for the box body, the feasibility of the land transportation process, and accurately calculate the cost.
