CMG Containers has announced expanded availability of open side containers for sale, responding to growing market demand for storage and transport solutions that prioritize accessibility, flexibility, and operational efficiency. The company's expanded inventory includes both 20ft open side containers and 40ft open side containers, supporting a wide range of commercial, industrial, and project-based applications across the United States.
Traditional end-door containers often limit how goods can be stored, accessed, and staged—especially when dealing with long materials, palletized inventory, or frequent loading cycles. Open side containers solve this problem by replacing one full side wall with secure, lockable doors that open the entire length of the container. As logistics operations, construction sites, and distribution hubs continue to prioritize speed and organization, side opening containers for sale have become a strategic asset rather than a niche option.
"Access is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity," said Ken Malkoç, CEO of CMG Containers. "Our open side containers give customers the ability to load, unload, and manage inventory with precision, without compromising security or durability."
Unlike standard containers that rely solely on end doors, open side shipping containers feature bi-fold or multi-panel side doors that span nearly the entire length of the unit. This design transforms how space is used and how materials flow in and out of the container. Key advantages include faster loading and unloading with forklifts or pallet jacks, easier organization of inventory along the container length, improved visibility and access to stored items, and reduced labor time and handling errors.
CMG Containers ensures that every open side container is built from premium corten steel, reinforced at stress points, and manufactured to ISO standards for strength, safety, and global transport compatibility. The company currently offers open side storage containers in the industry's most in-demand sizes, allowing customers to choose the right balance of footprint and capacity. The 20ft open side container is ideal for locations with limited space or operations that require frequent access to smaller volumes of goods. For larger-scale operations, the 40ft open side container provides expansive internal volume and uninterrupted side access, making it ideal for long materials, bulk inventory, and high-turnover storage.
Open side containers for sale from CMG Containers are used across a wide range of industries where access, efficiency, and durability matter most. Common applications include construction material storage and staging, logistics and freight operations, manufacturing overflow storage, retail and event inventory management, equipment and tool storage, and temporary warehousing solutions. Thanks to their structural integrity and weather-tight seals, open side containers perform reliably in both short-term and long-term deployments, even in harsh environmental conditions.
One common concern with side opening containers is security. CMG Containers addresses this directly through reinforced door frames, heavy-duty locking mechanisms, and tight weather seals that protect against unauthorized access and environmental exposure. Each open side container includes multiple locking bars along the side doors, reinforced hinges and door frames, wind and water-tight seals, and compatibility with advanced locking systems.
Beyond standard use, many clients choose to modify open side shipping containers for specialized applications. CMG Containers offers customization services that allow open side units to be adapted into functional modular spaces. Popular modifications include shelving and racking systems, electrical wiring and interior lighting, climate control and insulation, roll-up doors integrated into side openings, and branded finishes for commercial use. These enhancements make open side containers suitable for modular workshops, mobile retail units, exhibition spaces, and site offices where visibility and access are critical.
The rise of just-in-time inventory, mobile operations, and temporary infrastructure has reshaped how businesses think about storage. Open side storage containers support these trends by offering flexibility that fixed buildings and traditional containers cannot match. By reducing handling time and improving workflow, side opening containers help businesses increase operational efficiency, reduce labor costs, improve safety during loading and unloading, and adapt quickly to changing site conditions.
With a strong logistics network and nationwide reach, CMG Containers provides prompt delivery of open side containers for sale across the continental United States. Customers benefit from expert guidance during the selection process and transparent pricing from quote to delivery. "Our goal is to remove friction from the buying process," added Malkoç. "From the first inquiry to final delivery, we focus on clarity, reliability, and long-term value."
