The 20ft High Cube One-Trip Shipping Container provides an extra foot of internal height compared to standard units, delivering exceptional flexibility for taller cargo, vertical racking, or modification projects. Built from durable CORTEN steel and used only once for international transport, this container offers the reliability of a brand-new unit at a more affordable price.
20ft High Cube One-Trip Shipping Container
Key Advantage: More Height, More Possibilities
Measuring 9’6″ high externally (one foot taller than standard containers), the 20ft High Cube expands total capacity to approximately 1,300 cubic feet. This extra vertical clearance allows easier stacking, comfortable walkthrough height, and space for shelving, lighting, or specialized installations. Whether you’re converting it into a mobile workshop, office, tiny home, or using it for taller machinery, this design ensures functional efficiency without the footprint of a 40ft unit.
1. Cost-Effective Storage
Used 20ft containers are priced significantly lower than new builds, offering instant savings while maintaining robust quality. They are perfect for temporary, seasonal, or permanent storage applications.
2. Built for Longevity
Constructed with CORTEN steel, these containers naturally resist corrosion and can withstand decades of outdoor exposure. The 28mm marine-grade plywood flooring ensures forklift compatibility and heavy-duty support.
3. Secure and Weather-Resistant
Each container is designed to be completely sealed against wind and water, providing a dry, secure environment for your belongings, tools, or inventory — even in extreme weather.
4. Versatile Applications
Their compact footprint and portability make used 20ft containers adaptable for countless uses, including construction storage, agriculture, workshops, or on-site offices.
5. Environmentally Responsible
Buying used promotes sustainability by extending the lifecycle of existing materials, reducing waste, and minimizing environmental impact.
