20ft High Cube Container One Trip: Extra Clearance for Larger Equipment and Bulky Storage
The 20ft High Cube Container is built with an additional 30 cm of height compared to standard containers, providing the extra vertical space needed to store taller items, plant machinery, diggers, upright equipment, and bulky materials that do not fit comfortably in a standard height unit. With 1,320 cubic feet of internal capacity and near new condition from a single trip out of the factory, this container delivers maximum storage versatility at exceptional value.
Manufactured to ISO standards and used for just one voyage from China, this container arrives in excellent condition with factory paint intact, clean interior surfaces, fully functional door hardware, and the structural integrity of a unit that has seen virtually no wear. It is the closest thing to a brand new container without the premium price of a unit that has never been shipped.
Why High Cube for Equipment Storage
Standard 20ft containers provide approximately 7ft 10in of internal clearance. While adequate for most boxed goods and pallets, this height becomes a limitation when storing construction equipment with raised booms or arms, tall industrial machinery, stacked pallet loads three high, or items that need overhead clearance for safe forklift loading. The high cube adds an extra foot of headroom, bringing internal clearance to 8ft 10in. That additional space is often the difference between equipment fitting safely and equipment not fitting at all.
Key Features
- High cube height: 2.90 m (9 ft 6 in) external height provides 2.70 m (8 ft 10 in) of internal clearance for storing taller items that standard containers cannot accommodate.
- One trip condition: Used for a single voyage from the manufacturer. Arrives in near new condition with minimal cosmetic wear and maximum remaining service life.
- Corten steel construction: High strength weathering steel provides natural corrosion resistance and long term durability in all outdoor environments.
- Hinged double doors: Full width end doors provide unrestricted access for loading large items, machinery, and palletized goods.
- Factory fitted lockbox: A welded steel shroud protects the padlock from bolt cutters and pry bars, providing serious security against unauthorized access.
- Two locking bars per door: Independent cam lock mechanisms on each door leaf engage multiple points along the frame for a secure, tamper resistant seal.
- 28mm marine plywood floor: A thick, moisture resistant deck over steel cross members supports heavy concentrated loads from forklifts, machinery, and dense materials.
- Four vents: Double the ventilation of standard two vent containers, providing enhanced airflow that significantly reduces condensation buildup and keeps stored goods dry.
- Two forklift pockets per side: Integrated lifting points on each side allow the container to be repositioned with standard forklift equipment.

Construction
- Corrugated steel panels: Walls and roof use corrugated profiles for maximum rigidity and resistance to impacts during handling and transport.
- Continuous welded frame: All structural joints are fully welded to create a completely watertight enclosure that prevents moisture, dust, and pest ingress.
- Factory rubber door seals: Fresh gaskets in excellent condition maintain a perfect weatherproof seal when doors are closed.
- Enhanced ventilation: Four vents (versus the standard two) provide superior airflow management, making this container particularly suitable for storing items susceptible to moisture damage.
Ideal Applications
