Suppose you plan for an international move and require a higher cubic capacity for storing or shipping your belongings. In that case, 40 ft high cube shipping containers are the ideal solution for you.
Standard containers are like high-cube containers, except they’re taller. These containers are one foot taller than standard height containers.
The most common 40′ high cube containers are sometimes made as 45′ containers.
