Special Container Shipping from Global | OOG, Open Top, Flat Rack

SHAQ Logistics provides specialized container shipping for out-of-gauge (OOG) and oversized cargo that cannot fit in standard containers. Our services include Open Top containers for over-height cargo, Flat Rack containers for over-wide and over-weight cargo, and Platform containers for heavy equipment. We handle engineering machinery, wind power equipment, transformers, and steel structures with professional lashing, route survey, and transport permit services.

Special Container Types

Open Top Container (20'OT / 40'OT)

Containers with removable tarpaulin top for cargo that exceeds standard container height. Loaded from above by crane. Ideal for tall machinery, steel beams, and construction materials.

Flat Rack Container (20'FR / 40'FR)

Platform containers with foldable end walls for over-wide and over-length cargo. No side walls or roof. Used for machinery, vehicles, pipes, and heavy industrial equipment.

Platform Container (40'PL)

Reinforced flat platform for heavy and oversized cargo. Maximum weight capacity for heavy machinery, transformers, and large industrial components that exceed flat rack limits.

OOG Cargo Handling

Out-of-gauge cargo that exceeds standard container dimensions. Careful stowage planning, lashing, and securing to ensure safe transport of non-standard cargo.

Cargo Lashing & Securing

Professional lashing, blocking, and bracing of oversized cargo. Certified lashing materials and techniques to prevent shifting during maritime transport.
