Description
40ft Used High Cube Container
The largest standard shell we stock, in the taller high cube profile: 12.00 m of internal length and 2.70 m of internal height. That combination is what makes it the default choice for plant and excavator storage — the extra foot of headroom over a standard 40 ft is often the whole reason a machine fits at all.
These are ex-shipping-line containers sold wind and watertight. They have worked, and they look it: dents, surface scrapes and patch paint are normal on stock at this price. What is guaranteed is that the shell is sound and the seals keep weather out, which is what matters for storage.
Plan the delivery before you buy. A 40 ft unit needs a clear straight approach and roughly 60 ft of firm, level ground to set down cleanly. Where access is marginal, two 20 ft units frequently solve the same storage problem with far less delivery risk — tell us the site constraints and we will say which way to go.
