Collapsible Containers
48 x 45 collapsible bulk container — 42” height
For oversized loads that demand more vertical space, APR’s 48 x 45 collapsible bulk container with a 42” height delivers maximum internal volume with a space-conscious design. With an impressive 35.2” of internal clearance, this heavy-duty container handles large or irregularly shaped items with ease, making it ideal for industrial, automotive, or high-capacity material handling.
Despite its taller profile, it collapses to just 21”, offering a solid 2.0:1 return ratio and fitting up to 130 collapsed units in a standard 53’ trailer — reducing return trip costs and warehouse clutter.
Built to hold 1,700 lbs., each container is refurbished to APR’s performance-grade standards and available in open or closed deck styles with black or mixed-color options. Rugged, dependable, and optimized for bulk logistics, this container combines size and efficiency in one hardworking solution.
