A 45ft used high cube shipping container — also called a 45-foot high cube conex box or extended cargo container — is a pre-owned steel unit you own outright, offering maximum capacity with an extra 5 feet of length and 9'6" exterior height beyond a standard 40ft container. Built for bulky materials, tall equipment, and large-volume inventory at an affordable price.
Are used 45ft high cubes reliable? Each unit is fully inspected to ensure it is wind and watertight and structurally sound, with operational doors, floors, and seals. Built from heavy-duty Corten steel to ISO standards, used units may show cosmetic wear — dents, surface rust, and shipping company markings — without affecting performance.
Ideal for commercial overflow, industrial staging, agricultural bulk storage, and any application needing more cubic capacity than a 40ft high cube. Exterior colors vary depending on available inventory. 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.

Containers can usually be placed directly on a solid, level surface without a foundation. Let us know in advance if the site is wet, muddy, soft, sloped, or difficult to access.
