Details
20ft high cube containers are manufactured 1 foot (30cm) taller than a standard container. Designed to accommodate over-height cargo, the 20ft high cube provides an additional 15% load capacity, which equates to approximately 5 cubic metres.
If you need to transport or store additional items but want to avoid the cost of upgrading to a 40ft container, a high cube container could be the ideal solution. Increased door height makes it easier to load a 20ft high cube container and offers improved access when loading with a forklift.
The extra height also makes 20ft high cube containers ideal for use in the construction industry, particularly for safe and secure on-site storage of heavy duty machinery and tools.
