Roll containers are wheeled steel cages built for moving stock between vehicle, warehouse and shop floor — load once, wheel everywhere. Our heavy duty roll containers are UK-manufactured by GPC Industries from powder-coated steel and run on two fixed and two swivel 100 mm castors, so a laden container still steers cleanly through doorways and aisles.
One range, twelve configurations
Rather than a wall of near-identical products, the range is one heavy-duty platform in twelve configurations across two footprints: a compact 1100 × 700 × 1500 mm unit and a full-height 1730 × 725 × 1800 mm unit. Each is available with two ends only, with one or two mesh sides added, and with or without two removable shelves rated at 75 kg per shelf. Every configuration is supplied flat-packed for assembly on site — note that a forklift is needed to unload the units on delivery.
Which configuration do you need?
Two ends only suits bulky, self-stable loads and fastest loading from either side. Adding sides contains mixed or loose stock for transport — the usual pick for retail distribution work. Removable shelves split the container into tiers for smaller cartons and picked orders, and lift out again when you need the full cube back. If you're weighing a roll container against an open roll cage or A-frame, our roll cages & roll containers guide walks through the differences and safe-handling basics.
Built for repeated distribution use
Lighter nestable roll cages are common in retail, but they give up rigidity to save weight. These are the opposite trade: welded steel construction and powder-coated finish for containers that survive tail-lifts, dock edges and daily loading rather than needing replacement each season. For moving several containers over longer runs, pair them with an electric tug, and see the wider trucks & trolleys range for platform and distribution trucks, or storage cages for static secure storage.
