Dual Access

Tunnel containers are an alternative to a standard shipping container with double doors at both ends. Also known as a double end door container' or a 'tunnel container' these containers provide access to stored items from both ends.

Dual-end access permits cargo to be unloaded or loaded at either end of the container. This is perfect for transporting heavier or larger items that need to be removed from and into the box. Double-end access eliminates the requirement to empty the entire container in order to reach goods buried deep within, thereby saving time and reducing the risk of damage.
