20ft High Cube Shipping Containers

Product overview

A 20ft new high cube shipping container — also called a 20-foot high cube conex box or tall cargo container — is a factory-fresh, one-trip steel unit you own outright with an extra foot of vertical clearance compared to standard 20ft containers. That additional height makes a real difference for forklifts, generators, stacked inventory, and tall equipment.

What is high cube? At 9'6" exterior height versus 8'6" on a standard unit, high cube containers give you more headroom without adding length or width. Built from corrosion-resistant Corten steel to ISO standards, this one-trip container arrives in like-new condition with clean paint, intact seals, and a 10-year structural warranty.

Ideal for commercial inventory, construction equipment storage, retail overflow, government fleet storage, and custom builds where vertical space matters. Popular with customers in commercial, retail, and government sectors who need accessible, weatherproof storage. Units ship in stock for nationwide delivery, giving you secure steel storage on a timeline that matches project deadlines without waiting on custom lead times.
