20ft High Cube Side Opening Container for Sale (9ft 6in High)
Configured for specialist storage, this 20ft High Cube side opening container for sale combines a wide side access door with the generous 9ft 6in high cube height that is ideal for plant machinery and taller equipment such as diggers. Supplied as a one trip unit in near-new condition, it is built from all Cor-Ten steel and CSC plated to a maximum gross weight of 30 tons. The side opening design makes loading bulky or awkward items far easier than working through end doors alone, while the extra height gives you the room you need for tall equipment. Priced at $2,500, this 20ft high cube is available to buy online or through our sales team.
Best Uses for a Side Opening 20ft High Cube
- Storing taller plant, diggers and machinery with ease
- Loading wide or long items that won’t fit through end doors
- Controlled storage of drums, containers and bulky goods
- Forklift access from the side to speed up handling
- Trade and industrial site storage needing flexible access
- Secure lock-up with factory-fitted lockbox protection
The high cube height is the key benefit when storing tall equipment, giving you clearance that a standard container simply cannot match, so machinery slides in without scraping the roofline. Add the side opening and you gain a loading approach that suits items you would otherwise struggle to maneuver through a single end door, such as long lengths or wide plant. The unit retains exterior hinged double doors with two locking bars each, a factory-fitted lockbox to deter bolt cutters, four vents for healthy airflow, and forklift pockets on each side for repositioning around your yard. A 28mm marine plywood floor on steel cross members handles heavy loads underfoot without flexing, keeping the container ready for serious industrial use.
As a one-trip, cargo-worthy container, this 20ft high cube offers near-new condition and clean panels at a price that comfortably undercuts new stock, making it an easy decision for buyers who want quality without overspending. If your budget is tighter, used 20ft high cube containers are also available, but for clean condition combined with specialist side access this unit is genuinely hard to beat. It is equally at home on a construction site, in a depot or supporting a busy workshop. Full dimensions and specifications are listed below for your reference.
The real value of a side opening container shows whenever you are dealing with items that fight you on the way through a standard doorway. Long pipe, bundled lengths, wide pallets and bulky plant all load far more easily when one whole side of the container opens up to meet them, and forklift drivers will thank you for the saved maneuvering. Pair that with the extra high cube height and you have a unit that swallows tall, awkward loads without complaint. As a one-trip, cargo-worthy container it brings clean panels and tight seals to the table, so your stored goods stay dry and secure. For specialist storage needs, this 20ft high cube delivers exactly the access that ordinary containers cannot.
