Look at ones used on telehandlers. Many around and often for sale. Most are 16' long and about 4' deep or a little more. I have a 16' and 8' long ones. Most are 16' long so they can be as long as siding used on houses ect. Bought both used. Much cheaper than just cost of new steel. Had to do a little repair on both but it was minor. Most will have mesh floors but my 16' is diamond plate steel and the 8' is pressure treated plywood. Really handy on the front of my loader tractor, compact wheel loader or skid steer. I use mine with forks because it is fast and easy to use between machines. Nice for working on pivots or just changing light bulbs.

I also use a set of modified Gnuse forks designed for a tractor 3 pt. The hydraulic forks are rated for 5000 lbs and can get me another 7-8' of height.
