Maximum Space, Maximum Access and Professional-Grade Performance
The 40′ High Cube New Side-Door Shipping Container is an excellent solution for customers who require exceptional storage capacity combined with convenient side access.
Unlike a standard container that relies primarily on doors at one end, this High Cube side-door container is designed with an additional side opening that provides greater accessibility to the interior. This makes loading, unloading and organizing large, long, palletized or oversized items significantly more convenient.
With an external length of approximately 40 feet (12.19 metres) and a High Cube height of approximately 9 feet 6 inches (2.90 metres), this container provides a substantial amount of usable internal space. The increased height gives customers more vertical clearance than a standard-height 40-foot container, making it particularly useful for tall equipment, stacked materials and high-volume storage.
Whether you need a secure solution for shipping, industrial storage, construction materials, machinery, commercial inventory or logistics operations, this container delivers the space, durability and flexibility needed for demanding applications.
Built from durable Corten steel, the container is designed to provide long-term resistance to weather and regular operational use. Its strong steel structure helps protect valuable equipment, inventory and materials while providing the robust construction expected from an ISO shipping container.
As a new one-trip container, it has only been used for a single cargo journey from the manufacturing location to its destination. This means the container has minimal wear and offers a cleaner appearance and longer potential service life compared with many used containers.
The combination of High Cube height, large side access and standard end doors gives customers multiple loading options. Large equipment or palletized goods can be accessed more conveniently from the side, while the traditional container doors continue to provide standard end access.
For businesses that need a container capable of performing both as a secure storage unit and an international shipping container, this model offers an excellent combination of capacity, accessibility and professional construction.
High Cube Design ā More Vertical Storage Space
One of the main advantages of this container is its High Cube configuration.
A High Cube container provides additional height compared with a standard 40-foot container. With an external height of approximately 2.90 metres, it offers more vertical space for customers storing taller equipment, machinery, racking systems or stacked goods.
This additional height can make a significant difference when maximizing available storage capacity without increasing the container’s footprint.
The container provides approximately:
- 305.37 square feet of internal floor space
- 2,698.04 cubic feet of internal volume
This makes it a strong choice for customers who need substantial storage capacity in a single container.
Open-Side Access for Easier Loading
The defining feature of this container is its side-door/open-side configuration.
Traditional containers require goods to be loaded and unloaded primarily through the doors at one end. This can make handling long, bulky or awkwardly shaped cargo more difficult.
The side-access design provides an additional point of entry, making it easier to:
- Load palletized goods
- Store long materials
- Access equipment positioned along the container
- Load oversized items
- Organize inventory
- Improve loading and unloading efficiency
- Access stored goods without unloading the entire container
This makes the 40′ High Cube Side-Door Container particularly useful for businesses that require frequent access to their stored materials.
Durable Corten Steel Construction
The container is constructed from durable Corten steel, a material widely used in shipping-container construction because of its strength and resistance to demanding outdoor environments.
The robust steel construction helps provide:
- Long-term durability
- Weather resistance
- Secure storage
- Strong structural performance
- Protection for valuable equipment and inventory
- Suitability for demanding commercial and industrial environments
This makes the container suitable for both temporary and long-term applications.
New One-Trip Condition
This product is supplied in new one-trip condition.
A one-trip container has generally been used only once to transport cargo from the factory to its first destination. As a result, it has minimal wear compared with a used container.
The advantages of a new one-trip container include:
- Minimal previous use
- Cleaner overall appearance
- Minimal wear and tear
- Longer expected service life
- Excellent suitability for long-term projects
- Strong resale potential
- Professional appearance for commercial installations
The manufacturer also notes that new one-trip containers commonly include security and handling features such as a lockbox and forklift pockets.
