Frequently Asked Questions — high cube shipping container in Southampton
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.
Can a new high cube be ordered with a specific RAL colour?+
Yes, direct factory order (minimum 10 units, delivery time 12-14 weeks including maritime transport). At the EU depot, limited choice to RAL 5010 (blue), RAL 7016 (anthracite grey), RAL 9005 (black), RAL 6005 (green). Repainting yourself: 250-450 € for materials covering 80 m².
