Built for operators who need maximum usable volume from a single unit, this 40FT High Cube One Trip shipping container adds roughly 300mm of extra headroom over a standard-height box — enough for an additional pallet tier or for tall plant and machinery. One-trip stock has made just a single loaded voyage from the factory, so the paint, seals, floor and door gear all arrive in near-new order. It is the sensible choice when you want new-container quality from a 40ft high cube shipping container without paying a premium for an unused shell.
Key Features
- Corten weathering steel shell — a self-protecting alloy that stands up to damp British winters far better than mild steel.
- High cube profile giving approximately 76m³ (2,700 cu ft) of clear internal volume, around 13% more than a standard 40ft.
- Full-width twin cargo doors with four locking bars, cam keepers and replaceable rubber weather seals for a genuinely wind and watertight closure.
- 28mm marine-grade plywood floor rated for forklift traffic and heavy point loading.
- One-trip condition — factory paintwork with only light handling marks, usually confined to the corner castings.
- ISO 6346 marked with a valid CSC plate, so the unit remains suitable for onward sea freight as well as static storage.
- Fully welded construction with ISO corner castings for straightforward crane or HIAB handling.
