Is this container right for your project?
40ft High Cube shipping container (ISO 45G1) one-trip: only one loaded journey since manufacture. Length 12.19m, width 2.44m, height 2.90m.
An extra 30 cm of height
The High Cube measures 2.90 m high instead of 2.59 m. These extra 30.5 cm can help with tall loads or a conversion. Check the door opening and the internal headroom left after any floor, ceiling and insulation work.
One-trip specification
One-trip describes a container transported from manufacture, commonly on an initial cargo journey. Handling marks may be present. Confirm the transport history, structure, paintwork and floor of the actual unit from recent photos and its condition report.
40ft container delivery: access and unloading
Enquire about delivery to Australian states and territories, subject to supplier, route and site confirmation. Coverage, lead time, transport and unloading charges depend on the postcode and site assessment. Request delivered price and confirm the full amount before agreeing to buy. Islands, remote locations and northern communities may require separate transport arrangements.
Allow for a footprint of about 12.19 × 2.44 m, door opening and the proposed vehicle and lifting equipment. Ask the delivery team to assess gate width, turning space, overhead obstructions, ground bearing capacity and outrigger space. Confirm the actual unit weight and lifting points; access and crane reach cannot be approved from container dimensions alone.

Questions about the 40ft High Cube one-trip container
What is the price of a 40ft High Cube one-trip container?
Quote required for this specification. Request a quotation in AUD including applicable GST, delivery, unloading and any mandatory charges. Availability and the total depend on the proposed unit, postcode and site access. An enquiry does not place an order.
Where do you deliver, and how much does delivery cost?
You can enquire about delivery to Australian states and territories, subject to supplier, route and site confirmation; availability must be confirmed for your postcode. Delivery and unloading costs depend on your postcode, truck access and unloading method. Ask for a written quotation including applicable GST, delivery, unloading and any mandatory charges after access and the planned location have been checked. Tasmania, islands and remote sites may require separate transport arrangements.
What needs to be prepared on site?
Confirm land-use approval and any building permits with the local authority. Agree load-bearing ground, foundations or supports for local soil, wind and drainage conditions, vehicle access and the unloading plan with the supplier and a competent site professional. Mention overhead power lines, narrow gates, slopes and buried services. A generic footprint is not a foundation design or lift plan.
Can I see the container before confirming?
Request recent photos and, where possible, an inspection of the proposed unit before agreeing to buy. For a used container, they show the real condition of the doors, floor and walls.
What colours are available?
Colour preferences shown are gentian blue (RAL 5010), reseda green (RAL 6011), light grey (RAL 7035), anthracite grey (RAL 7016). Select a preference to include it in your enquiry. Actual availability and any repainting charge must be confirmed in the quotation.
What does a new-condition 40ft listing describe?
The new-condition 40ft models described in this catalogue are one-trip specifications. Confirm the actual unit and condition in the supplier’s quotation. Australian suppliers commonly advertise this condition as new, although the unit has travelled from manufacture and may show handling marks. This listing does not offer a never-used factory unit.
One-trip or new: what is the difference?
Australian suppliers commonly use ‘new’ to describe one-trip containers. We label that condition explicitly: the unit has travelled from manufacture and may have handling marks. It is different from a genuinely never-used unit. Ask for the actual unit's build and transport history and condition report.
Will a High Cube fit everywhere?
It measures 2.90 m high when on the ground; on a truck, the overall height exceeds that of a standard container. Have the carrier check the total loaded vehicle height, state or local road limits, permits and route clearances, including bridges and overhead power lines.
