The invention relates to a telescopic shipping container (1) transformable between a reduced configuration having reduced height and an erected configuration, the container (1) comprising a top segment (3) and a bottom segment (2), wherein the container bottom segment (2) comprises a rigid base panel (4) having four corner fittings (5) and the container top segment (3) comprises a rigid roof panel (6) having four corner fittings (7), the container (1) comprising two opposite side panels (9), wherein each side panel (9) comprises a top section (10) rigidly connected to the roof panel (6) and constitutes part of the container top segment (3) and a bottom section (11) rigidly connected to the base panel (4) and constitutes part of the container bottom segment (2). The container (1) is characterized in that the container (1) comprises at least four hinged girder assemblies (15), wherein each girder assembly (15) comprises an upper end pivotably connected to the container top segment (3) and a lower end pivotably connected to the container bottom segment (2), the girder assemblies (15) being in upright position and supporting the container top segment (3) when the container (1) is in the erected configuration.
