10ft High Cube Container: Extra Height for Maximum Storage Flexibility
The 10ft High Cube Container gives you everything a standard 10ft unit offers, plus an additional 300 mm of internal height that makes all the difference when storing taller items, stacking goods on shelving, or working inside the container. This is a one trip unit, meaning it was manufactured overseas, loaded with cargo for a single voyage to the United States, and arrived here in near new condition with factory fresh paint, clean walls, and fully functional hardware throughout.
With 18 cubic meters of usable internal volume, this container handles a surprising amount of cargo for its compact footprint. It fits comfortably in residential driveways, small commercial yards, and tight job sites where a 20ft or 40ft unit simply will not work, yet still provides enough room to store furniture, equipment, inventory, tools, and building materials securely.
What Makes the High Cube Different
A standard 10ft container stands 2,591 mm (8 ft 6 in) tall externally. The high cube version stands 2,896 mm (9 ft 6 in) externally, giving you an extra foot of vertical space inside. That additional clearance is noticeable the moment you step through the doors. It allows you to stack pallets higher, install shelving without sacrificing floor space, store upright furniture and appliances, and generally use the interior more efficiently than a standard height unit.
Key Features
- Extended height: The 2,693 mm internal ceiling height gives you substantially more vertical storage capacity compared to standard containers of the same length.
- Wide door opening: At 2,345 mm wide and 2,585 mm tall, the double cargo doors allow forklifts, hand trucks, and large items to pass through without difficulty.
- Heavy payload capacity: Rated for up to 10,000 kg of cargo, this container handles dense materials like metal stock, machinery, concrete products, and filled pallets without issue.
- Forklift pockets: Integrated pockets allow the container to be lifted and repositioned with standard forklift equipment.
- Lock box: A welded steel lock box protects the padlock from bolt cutters and pry attacks, adding a layer of physical security beyond the standard locking bars.

Construction
- Corten steel panels: Corrugated weathering steel walls and roof resist corrosion naturally, developing a protective patina that eliminates the need for ongoing paint maintenance.
- Marine grade plywood floor: A solid plywood deck over steel cross members provides a flat, stable loading surface that handles heavy point loads without warping.
- Welded steel frame: Continuous welds on all structural joints create a rigid, weatherproof enclosure that keeps moisture, dust, and pests out.
- Heavy duty locking bars: Cam lock bars on both doors engage multiple locking points along the frame for a secure, tamper resistant seal.
Color and Finish
This container arrives in RAL 5013 (cobalt blue), the standard factory finish applied during manufacturing. The paint is fresh and unmarked on one trip units, giving the container a clean, professional appearance suitable for customer facing locations, retail environments, or sites where visual presentation matters.
