1. Open-top special container is a container without a top or with an open top. When loading and unloading goods, a crane is needed to load or unload heavy goods from the top of the container. This type of container is suitable for loading extra-high goods such as glass plates, steel products, plywood, mechanical equipment, heavy goods that can be fixed by the side walls, and goods that are difficult to load and unload from the door and must be loaded and unloaded from the top of the container. 2. A frame-type special container is a container without a roof or wall, and the end wall can be removed, leaving only the bottom and four corner columns to bear the cargo. This type of container is mainly used for long and large items, overweight items, light and bulky goods, heavy machinery, steel, steel pipes, bare equipment, etc. that are not suitable for loading into general cargo containers or open-top containers, heavy goods that will produce concentrated loads, oversized goods, goods that are not afraid of wind and rain, goods that need to be loaded from the top or side of the box, and goods that need to be fixed in the box. 3. Bulk special containers are used to load bulk powder and granular goods such as soybeans, rice, malt, flour, feed, cement, resin, borax, chemical raw materials, etc. For some goods that require plant quarantine, such as imported grain, some need to be fumigated and disinfected at anchorages outside the port. Bulk containers can be equipped with openings for inserting fumigation drugs and outlets for fumigation gas, and such containers can be required to remain completely airtight during fumigation. 4. Tank-type special containers are containers suitable for loading liquid goods such as alcohol, oil, chemicals, dangerous goods, etc. This type of container has a special structure and equipment suitable for loading such goods. When loading, the goods enter through the loading hole on the top of the tank; when unloading, the goods flow out of the discharge hole at the bottom by gravity or are sucked out from the top loading port.

Container is a component tool that can carry packaged or unpackaged goods for transportation and is easy to load and unload with mechanical equipment. The success of containers lies in the standardization of their products and the entire transportation system established by them. It can standardize a behemoth with a load of dozens of tons, and gradually realize a logistics system that matches ships, ports, routes, roads, transfer stations, bridges, tunnels, and multimodal transport around the world on this basis. It can be regarded as one of the great miracles created by mankind in history.   Practical container knowledge inventory: 1. What do large container, small container and double container mean? (1) Large container generally refers to a 40-foot container, usually 40GP and 40HQ. 45-foot container is usually considered a special container. (2) Small container generally refers to a 20-foot container, usually 20GP. (3) Double container refers to two 20-foot small containers. For example, a trailer pulls two 20-foot small containers at the same time; when lifting at the port, two 20-foot containers are lifted onto the ship at one time.   2. What does LCL mean? What about FCL? (1) LCL (Less than Container Load) refers to the goods of multiple shippers in a container. Small batches of goods that cannot fill a full container are LCL cargo, which is handled according to LCL-LCL. (2) Full Container Load (FCL) refers to a container that contains goods from only one consignor or manufacturer. A larger quantity of goods that can fill one or more full containers is called a full container load and is handled according to the full container load (FCL-FCL) method.   3.
