40 ft High Cube Open Side Container

The 40ft high cube open side container offers the largest capacity in our range, with doors along the full length of one side for flexible access. Built from corten steel and fitted with secure lockboxes, it’s designed for oversized items, machinery, and bulk storage where wide openings make all the difference.

Our 40ft high cube open side containers are new build, one-trip units delivered directly from the factory to New Zealand. While they may carry light scuffs or dents from shipping, every container is structurally sound and certified for five years from manufacture.

The combination of full-length side doors and extra height makes this container highly versatile. It’s often chosen for loading multiple pallets at once, housing machinery, or event setups where wide, walk-in access is needed. The high cube design allows extra clearance for tall or bulky goods, giving more usable space compared to a standard 40ft.

Each container is built from corten steel for long-term durability. Features include a fitted lockbox for padlock security, marine-grade plywood flooring, underseal protection, and ventilation to reduce condensation. Forklift pockets are included for safe movement and positioning on site.

Features include:

  • Strong corten steel build designed for long-lasting outdoor use.
  • High cube design adds extra internal height for tall or oversized goods.
  • Full-length open side doors allow wide, flexible access for loading and unloading.
  • Lockbox fitted to protect padlocks and improve container security.
  • Easy-open doors ensure smooth operation during frequent use.
  • Marine-grade plywood flooring provides a stable base for heavy loads.
  • The underside is undersealed for added protection against damp ground.
  • Air vents improve airflow and help minimise condensation inside.
  • Forklift pockets allow for safe lifting and efficient repositioning.

Nationwide delivery is available. Our team can arrange placement with hiab or swing lift trucks, or customer unloading where suitable equipment is available.
