This 40ft used high cube wind and watertight container is stock ref 2547 — a direct ship unit dispatched from the container yard to your site at $3,800 with no depot processing stop. The 9’6″ high cube profile gives 2,698mm of internal clearance and 76.4 m³ of storage volume — the largest available in the standard 40ft range. Furthermore, the direct ship model passes the cost saving directly to the buyer by removing the handling step between the shipping yard and your site. In addition, every unit keeps out wind, rain, and vermin regardless of cosmetic condition.

40ft High Cube Wind and Watertight Container — On-Site and Farm Storage
A 40ft used high cube wind and watertight shipping container on direct ship covers two buyer profiles better than any other unit in the range. The first is the construction operator running a site compound, perimeter fencing line, or multi-container stacked storage configuration — they buy on structure and delivered cost, not paint condition or interior cleanliness. The second is the farmer or agricultural operator storing bulk grain, fertiliser, seed, and machinery parts across a large rural property where volume, security, and weatherproofing matter and cosmetic grade is irrelevant.
The 2,698mm internal height is the reason to choose this unit over a standard 40ft direct ship. Three-tier and four-tier racking systems fit where a standard unit limits you to two tiers. Tall machinery, irrigation equipment, and oversized agricultural implements store upright without disassembly. Furthermore, colour varies on direct ship units because they come straight from whichever shipping line surrendered the box at the yard — green, blue, red, and grey are all common. In addition, modifications are not available on this unit — contact us to discuss a processed unit if you need windows, insulation, or electrical fit-out.
