Description
Product overview
A 40ft new high cube shipping container w/ doors on both ends — also called a 40-foot high cube double-door conex box — is a one-trip steel unit for sale with cargo doors at each end plus extra 9'6" interior height for tall freight and racked storage. Dual-end access eliminates the need to unload from one end to reach the far side — a workflow advantage on busy job sites and warehouses.
What is high cube double-door? Standard 40ft length with one additional foot of vertical clearance inside and full cargo door sets at both ends. Built from Corten weathering steel with marine-grade plywood flooring, new units are ISO-certified, stackable, wind- and water-tight, and backed by a 10-year structural warranty.
Ideal for warehouse overflow, retail distribution staging, tall equipment storage, modular building conversions, and logistics operations where drive-through or dual-end loading speeds throughput. The defining feature is access from both ends in a high cube shell.
