All about the 40ft High Cube Shipping Container

The 40ft High Cube is ideal for big sites, with bigger-than-average needs. It’s a little over 12m long, and a foot taller than the standard 40ft container – which makes it a little too large for most standard residential sites. 

This container isn’t just big. It’s also strong, secure, vermin-proof, and weatherproof. It’s built from weathering carbon steel – ideal for all New Zealand’s elements, even if it’s four seasons in one day.

Don't need as much space?

We also offer a standard size 40ft Shipping Container, which is a foot shorter.

  • Turn it into a site shed
  • Customise it into a workshop
  • Store machinery
  • Keep equipment or parts
  • Make it a site office

40ft High Cube Shipping Container

How is this container delivered?

We deliver shipping containers all across New Zealand. When requesting a quote, just let our team know if truck access could be difficult, and note down any potential obstructions – like trees or power lines. On the day, make sure the access-way is clear, and that all pets and kids are safely out of the way. Then we’ll take care of the rest, with one of three delivery options.

SCF Shipping Containers - Delivery Method - Side Loader

Side Loader

If your site has limited space around the shipping container’s final position, side loader delivery could be the best option. The container is unloaded between the side loader’s two outrigger feet – about 0.5m from the truck’s side. We use side loaders to transport 20ft and 40ft shipping containers.

SCF Shipping Containers - Delivery Method - Hiab Crane

Hiab Crane

We use Hiab cranes when there’s not enough space for a side loader or tilt tray – or if your site has other tricky obstacles to manoeuver around (like fences). The crane lifts and then places the shipping container. This method also makes it easy to place containers at an angle, or on raised areas.
