40ft High Cube Open Side Shipping Container – Maximum Access & Extra Volume
The 40ft High Cube Open Side Shipping Container is the ultimate logistical powerhouse, designed for cargo that standard containers simply cannot accommodate. Featuring full-length side-opening doors and an extra foot of vertical height (9’6″), this unit provides unobstructed access along its entire 40-foot length.
Built from rugged CORTEN anti-corrosive steel, this container is the premier choice for loading oversized equipment, high-density pallet rows, or creating expansive, open-plan modular structures.
The Open Side + High Cube Advantage
-
Total Side-Loading Capability: The side doors fold back completely, allowing for the rapid loading of long-length goods—such as timber, steel beams, or heavy machinery—via forklift.
-
12 Inches of Extra Headroom: As a High Cube (HC) unit, you gain significant internal volume (approx. 76.4 m³), making it ideal for tall equipment or extra stacking height.
-
Multi-Point Entry: Equipped with both full-length side doors and traditional rear cargo doors, offering unmatched flexibility for complex inventory management.
-
Architectural Ready: This is the most sought-after unit for high-end container homes, mobile showrooms, and event stages due to its “open-wall” design and spacious ceiling.
