Types of flat rack containers
See below the two most common flat racks available for international shipping: Collapsible and Non-collapsible.
Collapsible flat rack
Collapsible flat racks have walls that can be detached or folded. The benefit of these units is that they are easy to transport, stack and store because they don’t have much height.
The thing is with these flat racks is that they lack the structural strength of a non-collapsible flat rack.
NON -collapsible flat rack
Non-Collapsible flat racks are structurally stronger and as such can handle heavier loads than a collapsible unit. Obviously, a disadvantage with the non-collapsible unit is that they take up a lot more space when storing or transporting.
