Frequently Asked Questions — high cube shipping container in Manchester
What weight does a new HC roof support compared to a used one?+
Point load capacity: 300 kg on 600 cm² (ISO 1496 standard). On a brand new HC, this value is guaranteed for 5 years. For a Grade A used HC, expect 60-70% of this capacity (fatigue). For a fitted-out roof terrace, double the structure with IPN or use only new.
Why does a new HC cost £1 500 more than a Grade A HC?+
New steel (without latent corrosion), fresh two-coat epoxy paint, intact apitong floor, five-year warranty that reassures insurers and banks. On a container home project amortised over 25 years, the extra cost is £60 per year — insignificant.
