45Ft Hc Used Shipping Container High Cube Wind And Watertight-Cargo Worthy

The largest container in our range, we can supply 45ft shipping containers for sale across the UK.
Available in used condition only, the 45ft high cube shipping containers we stock are spacious in size, as they provide an extra foot of height and are four inches wider than a standard container.
These pallet-wide containers are the perfect option for the safe storage, transportation, and international shipping of large cargo.

45 Foot Shipping Container Features
Our structurally sound stock of used 45ft shipping containers is guaranteed wind and watertight, with plywood floors and multiple air vents and lashing points. As the 45ft shipping containers we supply are second-hand and vary in appearance and condition, we offer a repainting service if a fresh lick of paint is required. A lockbox can be installed onto our used containers for an additional charge prior to delivery if this is desired by the customer as a security measure.

The dimensions of a 45ft pallet-wide shipping container are approximately:
External: 45ft (13,710mm) long, 8ft 2ins (2,500mm) wide and 9ft 6ins (2,890) high
Internal: 44ft 5ins (13,556mm) long, 8ft (2,430mm) wide and 8ft 10ins (2,692mm) high
Dimensions can vary slightly depending on the manufacturer. Commonly used for transporting goods, 45ft shipping containers can hold up to 33 Euro pallets and 26 Standard Pallets.

What “pallet-wide” actually buys you
The four extra inches of width are the reason this unit exists. On a standard 8ft box, two Euro pallets side by side leave almost no tolerance for a forklift operator. At 8ft 2ins external, a 45ft pallet-wide container swallows 33 Euro pallets rather than the 30 a 40ft high cube manages, which is a meaningful gain per movement for anyone shipping or storing in pallet quantities. If cargo worthy certification matters for onward sea freight, ask us to confirm the CSC status on the specific unit before you order — our container grading guide explains how wind and watertight and cargo worthy differ.

45 Foot Shipping Container Uses
45ft shipping containers can be used for various purposes, including:

Transporting cargo internationally by sea, land, or rail. They are mostly used for shipping a wide range of goods, including consumer products, machinery, and oversized items, around the world.
Temporary or permanent storage solutions for businesses or individuals
Being modified into various structures for bespoke business needs such as offices or workshops
If a 45ft unit is too big for the space you have available, we also offer multiple types of smaller containers in sizes 10ft, 20ft, 30ft and 40ft — the full 9ft 6in high cube range covers each of them.

When comparing 45ft and 40ft shipping containers, we have a wider variety of new and used 40ft units available with additional access points such as tunnels, side openers and tri doors.

Within the 45ft family, the heavy-duty used 45ft container is the budget option, while the 45ft steel shipping container is worth a look if you want a tidier exterior.
