The shaded area is the door opening: it is what determines what fits, not the volume. It loses little in width — 7 ft 8.1 in against 7 ft 8.5 in inside — but less clearance in height, 8 ft 6.2 in against 8 ft 10.3 in. A load that fits within the volume but exceeds the lintel remains on the quay. Scale drawing, traced over the dimensions in the table below. External length: 40 ft; width: 8 ft; height: 9 ft 6 in. Display conversions are rounded.

A nominal container format does not establish its load rating. Obtain the actual unit’s plate and specification for its tare, maximum gross mass and payload; include packaging, fittings and securing material in the calculation. Confirm its current condition and the limits of the vehicle, lifting equipment and delivery route before loading or lifting.

Is this container right for your project?

40ft High Cube shipping container (ISO 45G1) one-trip: only one loaded journey since manufacture. Extra height compared with the standard format; confirm the offered unit's external dimensions, clear interior and door opening.

Room for larger storage requirements

The nominal 40ft format offers room for pallets, machinery or seasonal stock on your site. Compare delivered quotations for one 40ft and two 20ft units; confirm actual dimensions, required space and suitable vehicle access.

An extra foot of height

A high-cube container is nominally 9 ft 6 in high, compared with 8 ft 6 in for a standard container. That extra foot 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 loaded journey

A one-trip container has made one loaded journey since manufacture. Handling marks may be present. Confirm the structure, paintwork, floor and transport history of the actual unit from recent photos and its condition report.

40ft container delivery: access and unloading

Enquire about delivery to Canadian provinces and territories, subject to route and supplier confirmation. Coverage, lead time, transport and unloading charges depend on the postal code 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.

Obtain the actual external dimensions of the proposed unit, then allow for its footprint, 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?
The catalogue container price is $4,181.25 before tax. Applicable GST/HST and provincial sales taxes are additional. Delivery and unloading are extra, depending on your postal code, truck access and unloading method. Optional repainting or alterations are quoted separately. Request the full delivered total before any order.
Where can I enquire about delivery, and how is it priced?
You can enquire about delivery to Canadian provinces and territories, subject to route and supplier confirmation; availability must be confirmed for your postal code. Delivery and unloading costs depend on your postal code, truck access and unloading method. Ask for a written quotation including applicable sales tax, delivery, unloading and any mandatory charges after access and the planned location have been checked. Remote locations, islands and northern communities may require a separate transport arrangement.
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 frost 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.
Are the new-condition 40ft containers one-trip?
The new-condition 40ft specifications in this catalogue are one-trip containers. Canadian 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?
Canadian 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 container fit everywhere?
Its nominal external height is 9 ft 6 in; on a truck, the overall height exceeds that of a standard container. Have the carrier check the total loaded vehicle height, provincial or territorial road limits, permits and route clearances, including bridges and overhead power lines.
