-
Otherwise, same width and length as standard containers
-
Available in 20 ft, 40 ft, and sometimes 45 ft lengths

🧱 Why Choose a High Cube Container?
✅ 1. More Vertical Storage
-
That extra foot adds a LOT of capacity—perfect for taller items like machinery, shelves, or stacked boxes.
🏠 2. Great for Container Homes & Offices
-
The added height makes the space more livable and airy.
-
More room for insulation, lighting, air ducts, or a ceiling fan.
🔧 3. Easy Modifications
-
High cubes give you more flexibility to cut windows, doors, or even raise floors without losing usable headroom.
🚛 4. Still Easy to Transport
-
Despite being taller, they’re widely compatible with transport systems—trucks, ships, and cranes.
⚠️ Things to Keep in Mind:
-
Heavier when loaded, so check weight limits for trucking or stacking.
-
Slightly more expensive than standard-height containers.
-
May not fit under older bridges or through tight clearances without planning.
💡 Popular Uses:
-
Off-grid cabins / tiny homes
-
Workshops or studios
-
Pop-up shops or cafes
-
Storage units for equipment or seasonal goods
-
