Abstract: A mobile container for goods transport by road includes two standing side walls which enclose on a longitudinal side a converging open discharge channel. Two end walls connect to the side walls. A conveyor connects onto the open discharge channel. The mobile container further includes a substructure with at least one wheel pair. The substructure further includes coupling means for connecting the mobile container to a tractor vehicle. The side walls are manufactured from plastic. In addition, connecting panels, which engage over a determined length onto the side walls, are placed between the side walls. The assembled side walls, end walls and connecting panels together form a self-supporting construction.
