GOH containers are specialized containers designed for transporting garments on hangers.
They are available in two standard sizes: 20 feet (6.1 m) and 40 feet (12.19 m). GOH containers can be used for both dry cargo and refrigerated cargo, depending on the needs of the apparel shipper. In some countries, they are known as “hangtainers.”
Use of Garment On Hanger Container (GOH container)
They have arrangements for using strings, bars, or a combination of both, which makes them flexible and allows for greater loading capacity. This helps to minimize transportation and handling costs, making them useful for apparel exporters who want to save time, labour, and money.
In GOH containers, the garments are loaded onto racks and poles that are connected with screws and nuts, ensuring that they are safely secured during transport. The inner sides of the container are covered with a plastic clothing cover, and a dryer is hanged on each pole to keep the garments dust-free.
The horizontal poles on the roof of the GOH container help to maximize the volume of garments that can be loaded. The garments can be easily hung on the poles using hooks, buckles, nylon straps, or ropes. Overall, GOH containers provide a convenient and efficient way to transport garments on hangers.
