Container Trailers
Road-registered trailer platforms that make any shipping container mobile. Base Shell trailers are supplied as empty shells for immediate use, or as the foundation for purpose-built conversions, and serve operators across Canada.
Adaptable platform
A container platform that moves with the operation
No permanent foundation required. A durable, relocatable trailer system engineered for stability, security and accessibility, which can often be placed without the permitting typically required for permanent structures.
Drag to rotate
Drop-axle platform
Container trailer conversion platforms
The Insula drop-axle system allows a container to be lowered to near ground level shortly after arrival, with the tongue removed to create an accessible, secure structure.
Because the unit remains a registered trailer, it can often avoid the permitting normally required for landed container or modular installations, supporting rapid deployment and straightforward relocation.
