Choosing the right container type

Dry, reefer or special equipment — a plain-language guide.

Shipping containers on terminal trucks at a modern port

Choosing the right container is one of the first decisions in a containerized shipment. THYNK’s NVOCC services use dry vans, reefers and special containers.

Dry containers

Standard enclosed containers for general cargo that does not need temperature control. Common sizes include 20ft, 40ft and 40ft High Cube.

Reefer containers

Temperature-controlled containers for cargo that must stay within a temperature range, such as fresh food products.

Special containers

For cargo with non-standard requirements that standard equipment cannot meet.
