20ft High Cube Open Side Shipping Container for Sale
A 20ft high cube open side shipping container for sale combines the practical 20ft footprint of a standard container with additional High Cube height and side-opening access.
This configuration is particularly useful when customers need easier access to bulky cargo while also wanting additional vertical storage space.
The supplied product is listed at $2,300, reduced from an original listed price of $2,500.
High Cube Configuration
The High Cube design gives this container an exterior height of 9ft 6in, compared with the 8ft 6in exterior height stated for a standard-height 20ft container.
That additional height can provide more vertical clearance for storage, equipment, shelving, and taller goods.
The supplied internal dimensions are:
- Length: 19ft 4in
- Width: 7ft 8in
- Height: 8ft 6in
Customers should use the internal dimensions when determining whether their actual cargo will fit inside the container.
Open-Side Access
The other defining characteristic is the double side-opening door configuration.
Instead of relying solely on a conventional end-door opening, this design provides side access to the container.
This can make loading and unloading easier when handling large, bulky, oversized, or irregularly shaped cargo.
Side access may also be useful when the container is positioned where front-end loading is less convenient.
The exact usable door opening dimensions are not supplied and should be confirmed for the available unit.
Corten Steel Construction
The supplied product identifies Corten steel as the construction material.
Corten steel is described by the supplier as providing durability and resistance to environmental conditions.
The supplied roof is a fixed steel roof with a weatherproof seal.
The exact condition, manufacturing year, paint condition, and other unit-specific details have not been provided.

Construction and Jobsite Storage

Side access can make it easier to load materials that are difficult to maneuver through a conventional end opening.
The additional High Cube height can also provide extra room for taller items and vertical storage arrangements.
Logistics and Distribution
The container can be useful for logistics and distribution operations where large or irregular cargo needs convenient access.
Businesses can organize goods inside the container while using the side opening for loading and unloading.
The actual loading method should be matched to the cargo and handling equipment being used.
Retail and Commercial Storage
Retail and commercial businesses can use suitable containers for inventory, stock, equipment, and other goods.
The combination of side access and additional height can be useful when storing tall or bulky items.
Businesses should plan shelving and access routes before delivery to ensure that the space works effectively for the intended application.
Equipment Storage
The High Cube configuration can provide additional vertical space for suitable equipment and machinery.
Customers should measure equipment carefully before purchase.
Important measurements include:
- Overall height
- Width
- Length
- Loading clearance
- Required side-door access
The container’s stated internal dimensions should be compared with the actual equipment dimensions.
20ft High Cube Open-Side vs. Standard 20ft Open-Side
Both products provide side-opening access.
The key difference is height.
The 20ft High Cube Open-Side has a stated exterior height of 9ft 6in, while the standard-height Open-Sided version has an exterior height of 8ft 6in according to the supplied product information.
Choose the High Cube version when additional vertical clearance is important.
Choose the standard-height Open-Sided version when additional height is unnecessary and conventional container height is sufficient.
20ft High Cube Open-Side vs. 20ft High Cube
Both products provide High Cube height.
The difference is access configuration.
A standard 20ft High Cube uses the conventional container access configuration, while the Open-Sided version adds side-opening access.
Choose the Open-Sided version when easier side loading is an important requirement.
