Product description
Description
This used 45ft High Cube shipping container provides a balance of extended length and increased height. The “cargo-worthy” designation confirms that the structural integrity, door operation, and floor condition meet the requirements for active transport and handling.
The High Cube specification allows for the secure transport of voluminous cargo or the creation of additional headroom for modified units. The unit features standard corner castings for lifting and securing, making it compatible with existing container handling equipment. Externally, the container shows wear consistent with prior use, including cosmetic dents, scuffs, and surface rust, but maintains the structural reliability required for safe operation.
