    Applications and Uses

    Although commonly used for transporting 40-foot shipping containers, the 40′ chassis tri-axle trailer is also highly versatile in other applications, including:

    • Transporting a wide range of goods;
    • Logistics;
    • Shipping;
    • The storage of oversized equipment and heavy machinery.

    The 40ft tri-axle chassis trailer offers indispensable strength and efficiency in moving cargo across different domains.

    Comparison of a 40-foot Tri-Axle Chassis Trailer with Other Trailer Types

    In contrast to other trailer types, the 40ft tri-axle chassis trailer excels, and that’s why:

    • The 40′ chassis triaxle trailer‘s balance is maintained even under heavy loads due to the tri-axle configuration. The ideal weight distribution reduces the potential for tipping or swaying.
    • Three axles allow the chassis trailer tri-axle 40ft to carry standard 40-foot containers and other heavy cargo. The additional axle assists in distributing the weight more evenly throughout the trailer, reducing stress on the individual components.
    • The tri-axle setup enhances the trailer’s overall balance. The 40ft tri chassis for a container maintains its composure even when faced with sharp turns or uneven terrain.
    • Although it is built tough, the 40ft tri chassis for a container is still remarkably maneuverable. The extra axle leads to better control in tight spaces and complicated routes.

    The 40ft 3-axle chassis trailer is an exemplary choice for those who desire a balance of strength and finesse for moving standard containers and other heavy loads.

    Taking a moment to send a big shot out to the Pelican Container Family…. I’m building a shipping container home using 45’ shipping containers. This project started when I purchased 4 boxes from conexwest who sold me (4) 45’ boxes for 6990.00 each (😳) only for 2 of them to be damaged with holes in the structure. They refunded 1 & refused to refund the other. To keep my project from being delayed during the damaged box dispute. I needed a total of 4 boxes to complete the project. I doubled back to conexwest & purchases 2 more boxes @ 6690.00 for 2 with delivery. This purchase was made on 11/23. Conexwest refused to deliver my boxes from purchase date to 9/15/25 only to refund me 9/16/25 after heing contacted by the new station about my order for the purchase made 11/23. I was without a box and came across Pelican Containers… the price I saw was totally fair. I reached out and was contacted by Roselle, she is absolutely perfect to work with. I wasn’t sure at first yet Roselle’s communication is top notch! The delivery was quick! The driver of the box was awesome! The transport team was very cool and flexible. The box showed up just as a used box should some rust… some dents…. Yet WWT for sure Cargo worthy… I’m very thankful and I will ALWAYS USE PELICAN CONTAINERS for my shipping continue purchases! Roselle thank you and your team & as we shared we will continue this business relationship for the time to come!

    Valery was a pleasure to work with! She went above and beyond to locate, secure, and ship a flat rack container that suited our needs. We were on a tight schedule, and her diligence and efforts allowed us to purchase and take delivery of the container in just a few short days. She was a key factor in making our project a success! Thanks again, Valery and Pelican Containers!

    We were looking for a unique style of container. The one we originally committed to purchasing was sold before we closed the deal. We ended up with a very nice container that had all the characteristics we required, but had a hinged double door on the side. It worked out nicely and Reniel Villar was true to his word. The 4 rating (still very good) was not a 5 due to timing and circumstance. We wood buy from Pelican again. Also, the logistics company's driver was spectacular.
