Frequently Asked Questions — high cube shipping container in Southampton
One-trip high cube vs new high cube: visible difference?+
At two metres distance, indistinguishable. On closer inspection, the one-trip may have 1-2 micro-scratches on the longitudinal beams (friction from cargo handling in the hold), invisible after installation. The price difference of €800 is justified solely by the five-year warranty of new.

Felixstowe receives 200-400 HC one-trips per month (first UK port), Southampton 100-200, London Gateway 80-150, regional UK ports 20-50. Off-season (Jan-Feb), volumes halved. Anticipate a lead time of 2-3 weeks if you aim for a specific colour.
Is the apitong floor of a one-trip HC safe?+
