The four-letter prefix TOPU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Toptainer Containermanagement & Sales GmbH.
A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.
Use the complete number to request available tracking events. If no events appear, confirm the operating carrier because leased or exchanged equipment can move under another shipping line.
TOPU container number format

Tracking a TOPU container
Enter the full TOPU number to request events. The prefix identifies the owner, but leased or exchanged equipment can travel with another shipping line, so check the operating carrier if nothing appears.
