Built to ISO 668 Series 1 dimensional standards.

Standard Height vs High Cube — Why Standard Might Suit You

Most 40ft one-trip containers on the Australian market are High Cube (9’6″ external). Standard-height 40ft units (8’6″ external) are 305mm shorter overall and suit specific applications:

• Overhead clearance-limited sites — under bridges, awnings, powerlines, or building overhangs where HC will not fit
• Warehouse door clearance — where standard height matches standard door heights for internal placement
• Multi-stack placement — two-high stacking under low-ceiling warehouses or covered storage
• Standard rail freight specifications — where HC units require special routing

Key Features

• One-trip (new) — first cargo voyage only, clean interior, minimal cosmetic wear
• Standard height — 8’6″ external, 7’10” internal (305mm less than HC)
• Cor-Ten weathering steel — long service life in Australian conditions
• 28 mm marine plywood floor — forklift-loading rated
• Double cargo doors with locking bars plus factory lockbox
• 67.7 m³ internal volume, 28.3 m² floor area
• Forklift pockets both sides — crane-free site repositioning
• Valid CSC plate — factory-issued
• ISO 668 Series 1 corner castings — universal handling equipment compatibility
• Stock ref 2530 — specific unit available for immediate delivery
