The 40ft high cube is the most-specified container in industrial Perth. Twelve metres long, two-point-nine metres tall, and 76.2 cubic metres of weatherproof internal volume. It’s the base unit for the majority of our mining modifications, the standard for bulk storage and palletised cargo, and the container of choice when you need maximum capacity in a single delivery.

The height advantage matters more than people realise. Standard containers sit at 2.39m internal height – by the time you frame, insulate, and line them, you’ve got 2.2m of headroom, which feels tight for anyone over six foot. The 40ft high cube starts at 2.69m internally, so a fully fitted-out office, workshop, or accommodation unit still feels like a proper room. For unmodified storage, the extra 300mm lets you stack pallets two high in many applications, or store taller machinery without tilting it.

Construction is identical to a standard 40ft: marine-grade Corten weathering steel walls, 28mm structural plywood floor rated for forklift traffic, full-width double doors at the rear that swing 270 degrees against the side walls. Every unit is wind-and-watertight on delivery and carries current ISO 668 and CSC certification for global shipping.

Premium Used ($4,200) are cargo-worthy units that have made one to three international voyages. Structurally sound, fully sealed, with cosmetic wear typical of working containers – small dents, surface rust on the corrugations, faded paint. Inspect them yourself at our depot.

New 1-Trip ($5,950) are factory-fresh containers shipped once from Asia. Pristine paint inside and out, no rust, no dents. These are what we recommend for any modification project, customer-facing application, or long-term placement where appearance matters.
