40ft high cube used shipping container
Product Description
The 40ft High Cube Used Shipping Container – Wind and Watertight (WWT) is engineered to provide maximum internal capacity and long-term storage reliability. With an extra 12 inches of vertical clearance compared to a standard 40ft container, this high cube format accommodates oversized cargo, tall equipment, or optimized racking systems.
These containers are supplied in used condition but certified as wind and watertight (WWT). That means they have been inspected for structural integrity and water resistance, ensuring they remain sealed against weather, pests, and environmental exposure. While cosmetic wear, surface rust, and dents are common due to prior service, the units maintain full functional performance for storage and transport.
