Frequently Asked Questions — high cube shipping container in Coventry
Does an extra 30 cm in height justify +500 € on a used container?+
Yes for conversion: insulation 8 cm + false ceiling 5 cm + technical floor 5 cm eat up 18 cm. On a high cube, you keep 2.51 m under finished ceiling; on a standard, it drops to 2.21 m, almost uninhabitable. For pallet storage, the standard is sufficient.
What thickness difference in roof between used and new high cube?+
Theoretically none: corrugated corten steel sheet 1.6 mm on both sides. In practice, a Grade C high cube may have micro-perforations on the low waves (punching by maritime loading). Inspect the roof with a torch or request a water test before purchase.
Is the 45-foot high cube less common as used?+
Yes — the 45 HC pallet wide is almost exclusively used for intra-European transport (truck). Volumes five times smaller than the 40 HC. Expect prices from £3,650 to £5,650 for a Grade A 45 HC, mainly available at major UK and northern EU ports (Felixstowe, Rotterdam).
