About this container

The 40-foot container offers a long storage space. Store items according to how often you use them: you will avoid moving everything to reach what is at the back. For the same length, a High Cube is taller than a standard container and occupies the same floor area. The door opening is lower than the inside height: measure your items before choosing. Its external dimensions are 12.192 × 2.438 × 2.896 m (length × width × height). Check the measurements of the container you are buying, especially if you need to fit a bulky item inside.

A used container in very good condition generally has a neater appearance. Still check the doors, seals, floor and repairs: the actual condition varies from one container to another. This model is shown in grey. Ask for photos to see its current colour and any paint repairs. Ask which equipment is included in the quote. The catalogue images show the model: ask for recent photos of the container you will buy.

From the truck to your site

Plan access and placement together. These three views help you describe your site to the supplier.

Crane unloadingSide view: a truck-mounted crane with stabilisers, lifting a container from its four upper corners above the placement area.

Crane unloading

A truck-mounted crane can place the container from a suitable working area. The supplier confirms the vehicle, lifting reach and space needed for its stabilisers.

Access & manoeuvringTop view: a gate, truck, approach route and container position, with clear manoeuvring space.

Access & manoeuvring

Provide gate width, bends, slopes and obstacles. The access route must suit the selected truck, all the way to its unloading area.

Ground & door clearanceTop view: a container at its final position, with two open doors and swing arcs. A spirit level represents ground preparation.

Ground & door clearance

Prepare a stable, level position. Leave space in front of the doors for their swing and for handling goods; the supplier confirms suitable supports.

40′ / High Cube

This container for your project

Container 40 ft High Cube · Used · excellent condition · Grey. Check that this container suits what you want to store and the access to your site. Ask which equipment is included in the quote.

Possible uses

  • Tall shelving
  • Bulky equipment
  • A conversion project to assess

What to consider

Extra height does not increase door width and does not guarantee suitability as an occupied space. Keep a passage to access the back and make sure the truck can deliver a container of this length.

To compare other configurations in the same format, see the catalogue’s 40-foot containers. For extra height, also compare the High Cube containers.

Plan the access

Check that objects fit through the doors and that there is enough clearance above the container on your site. Give the full postcode, post town and building number or name; the first postcode group alone does not locate the entrance.

Before you buy

  1. Confirm the door clearance height and check for obstacles along the path of your items. To prepare these choices, use the dimensions and openings guide.

  2. For this used unit in excellent condition, have door closure, seals and any repairs checked. Follow the steps in the used-container inspection guide.

  3. Ask for the container number, recent photos, and a quote that specifies the included equipment and planned repairs.

Frequently asked questions

Dimensions, access, storage and delivery: practical answers for your project.

What does a High Cube add compared with a standard?

A High Cube adds height for bulky items, tall shelving and conversion projects. This 40-foot model offers about 76.3 m³, with a typical internal height of 2.7 m. The usable door height is 2.597 m: an item may fit inside but not pass upright through the entrance.

What is the usable door height?

The typical opening is 2.340 × 2.597 m (width × height), with an internal height of 2.7 m. The extra height of a High Cube does not add door width. For tall equipment, compare the entrance height and handling position, rather than just its final position inside.

What are the dimensions and floor area of this 40-foot container?

Outside (length × width × height): 12.192 × 2.438 × 2.896 m, occupying about 29.7 m². Typical inside dimensions (length × width × height): 12.032 × 2.350 × 2.700 m, with about 28.3 m² of floor area and 76.3 m³. The door opening is 2.340 × 2.597 m (width × height), separate from the internal dimensions. These are model reference dimensions; manufacturing and equipment can cause small differences.

What does “Used · excellent condition” mean for this container?

Excellent condition here describes a used container with limited visible wear and possible handling marks. For a presentable project or frequent access, consider door operation, seals and the floor. Photographs of the offered unit show these points; the catalogue illustration does not show its history.

How can I reduce moisture and condensation during storage?

A metal wall can collect condensation when humid air meets a cold surface, even without water ingress. Store dry goods, pallets and packaging, maintain air circulation around the load and monitor humidity, especially after large temperature changes. Sensitive goods need moisture protection and ventilation suitable for their use. An uninsulated dry container does not maintain a constant temperature.

Does the price include delivery and taxes?

This configuration costs £2,275.5 excluding tax for one container. Transport, unloading and any fit-out are quoted separately for your request. Currency and price follow the selected country; the proposal sets out applicable taxes and the complete amount.

What should I prepare to request a project quote for United Kingdom?

The container occupies about 29.7 m², with an external base of 12.192 × 2.438 m. That area excludes door swing and space for the truck and handling equipment. Prepare a stable, level location and provide the postcode or area, narrow passages, turns, slopes, obstacles and available unloading equipment. These details support transport pricing and selection of a suitable vehicle. Give the full postcode, post town and building number or name; the first postcode group alone does not locate the entrance. Postcode: both groups of the complete postcode. Format example: SW1A 1AA. Use your site’s code, not this example. Include the building or site name when it helps identify the correct entrance. State the space available for manoeuvring and for leaving after placement. The proposal should confirm transport, unloading, availability and timing for this site.

What happens after I submit my postcode request?

Your selection and delivery details are sent through Quotbox to contact suppliers. They are used to propose a unit and detail the container, taxes, transport and unloading. You can compare that proposal and refine your project before accepting it. The form is a no-obligation enquiry with no automatic purchase or payment.
