Product Specifications

Dimensions are typical reference values. Verify the actual container’s external and internal measurements, door opening, floor condition, weight ratings and handling requirements before purchase.

What Is a High Cube Shipping Container?

A High Cube shipping container is taller than a standard-height container of the same nominal length and width. A typical High Cube model has an external height of approximately 9 ft 6 in (2.90 m).

The extra height can be useful when storing bulky inventory, taller equipment or goods that need more vertical clearance. However, the usable space depends on the actual internal dimensions, door opening and how the contents are arranged.

A 20ft format may also suit sites where a larger 40ft container would take up too much room. Measure your intended storage area and stored items before ordering.

Suitable Uses for a Used 20ft High Cube Container

Commercial and business storage

Use a suitable container to store boxed inventory, packaging, tools, spare parts and other business supplies. It can help create additional storage capacity at a workshop, retail premises, warehouse or business site.

Construction sites and contractors

Construction companies may use shipping containers for tools, equipment and suitable building supplies. Before delivery, check site access, ground stability, security requirements and space for the delivery vehicle to position the container.

Machinery and equipment storage

The High Cube design offers extra vertical clearance for certain taller items. Measure machinery and equipment carefully, including any attachments or packaging, and compare those measurements with the actual internal dimensions and door opening.

Agricultural and farm storage

A container can provide storage for suitable farm tools, equipment and non-perishable supplies. Items requiring temperature control, specialist ventilation or humidity management may need a different storage solution.

Workshops and industrial premises

Businesses can use a suitable container to store spare parts, maintenance supplies and equipment. Consider how often you need access, whether you require shelving or lighting, and whether any modifications are needed.

Why Consider a Used Grade A Container?

Buying used can be a practical choice when the container’s condition meets your intended requirements.

Potential advantages include:

• A lower purchase cost than some new or one-trip alternatives.
• A reusable storage structure for commercial or personal applications.
• Additional vertical clearance in a compact 20ft format.
• A lockable storage space for suitable goods.
• Flexibility for workshops, construction sites, farms and business premises.

Grade A is a commercial condition description, not a universal guarantee of appearance or structural quality. Ask for current photographs, condition details and confirmation of any repairs or defects before ordering.

What to Check Before Buying

Before purchasing your used 20ft High Cube container, consider the following:

1. Structural condition: Check the frame, corner posts, roof, walls and floor for damage or corrosion.
2. Doors and seals: Confirm that the doors operate correctly and the seals provide suitable weather protection.
3. Internal dimensions: Measure the goods you intend to store and verify that they fit through the door opening.
4. Security: Confirm the lockbox and locking bars are in suitable working condition.
5. Site preparation: Arrange a stable, level supporting surface and adequate delivery access.
6. Intended use: Check whether the container is suitable for storage, transport or any proposed modification.
7. Delivery arrangements: Provide the destination postcode and details of access restrictions before requesting a final quotation.

If the container will be used for international cargo transport, verify its suitability, certification and acceptance requirements with the relevant carrier. A container suitable for storage is not automatically approved for every transport purpose.

What can I store in a 20ft High Cube container?

Depending on the container’s condition and your storage requirements, it may be suitable for tools, commercial stock, equipment, machinery and non-perishable supplies. Special requirements for ventilation, temperature, hazardous materials or moisture-sensitive goods must be assessed separately.

Is a used container cheaper than a new one?

Used containers can cost less than new or one-trip alternatives, but the actual difference depends on condition, specification, availability, location and transport costs. Compare the full delivered cost rather than the purchase price alone.
