Are There High Cube Containers for 20-Foot Containers?

Yes, 20-foot high cube containers are available. These containers are similar to the standard 20-foot containers but have an extra foot (about 0.3 meters) in height, making them ideal for smaller dry goods. Compared to brand-new containers, opting for a used one can be more cost-effective, with potential savings of up to $2,000 in some regions.

How Much is a 40-Foot High Cube Container?

For those needing more storage space, the 40-foot high cube container is a popular choice. With double the volume of a 20-foot high cube, it allows for the transportation of more goods. For example, a new 40-foot high cube container can be purchased for $2,694, while buying two 20-foot high cubes would cost around $3,000.

Since October last year, the price of 40-foot high cube containers in China has surged by 78%. At CIMC Equilink, you can find a wide variety of containers and competitive prices.
