High Cube Shipping Containers For Sale, Hire or Finance
High-cube shipping containers are identical to general-purpose shipping containers in terms of strength, durability, and security. Their unique selling point is the extra foot of height they provide. It may not seem like much, but it can make a significant difference. A high cube 40 foot container, for example, provides an additional 344 cubic feet of storage space over a regular 40 foot shipping container!
When extra height for tall goods or more room to stack bulk freight or storage items is necessary, high cube shipping containers come in handy. They’re composed of solid steel and are entirely waterproof, just like general-purpose ocean cargo shipping containers, so they’re a sturdy, durable, wind-proof, watertight, and secure way to store or export your items.
While high cube shipping containers have more storage capacity than normal containers, it’s important to remember that the gross weight limit of both containers is the same, therefore the weight of the items being carried must be taken into account. However, if you’re simply using it for storage, this isn’t an issue.
