Same footprint as a standard 40ft, one full foot taller. The high cube suits conversions, tall equipment, and commercial projects across Indiana. Ask for a written quote with delivery details.
The "high cube" designation means the container is one foot taller than a standard ISO shipping container, also known as a conex box. That takes the exterior from 8 ft 6 in to 9 ft 6 in, and the usable interior ceiling from 7 ft 10 in to 8 ft 10 in. Available in several grades, including used wind and water tight (WWT) and one-trip. See our condition guide for the differences.
That extra foot can help with overhead storage, lighting, and equipment, but finishes and insulation reduce the final headroom.

The high cube door opening is also taller, 8 ft 5 in against 7 ft 5 in on a standard container. That matters when you are loading tall items.
High cube pricing depends on the grade, inventory and your delivery address. Request a written quote for the unit you need.
Allow additional vertical clearance over stacked supplies in an Indianapolis equipment yard while keeping stacks stable and aisles usable.

Keep bulky empty packaging indoors near an Evansville operation without confusing extra height with permission to overload the floor.
When planning an Indiana workshop conversion, reserve interior height for ceiling insulation, finishes and services, and measure the finished interior rather than the outside shell.
Store tall grounds or maintenance equipment after comparing its actual dimensions with the cargo-door opening.
A high cube delivers on the same tilt-bed truck as a standard 40ft, and it needs the same room, with one extra foot of height to account for on the trailer.
