40ft High Cube Full Side Access Container for Sale (9ft 6in High)
For projects where access is everything, this 40ft High Cube full side access container for sale completely changes how you load and unload. Supplied as a one trip unit in near-new condition, it combines the 9ft 6in high cube height with a remarkable 11,836mm (38ft 9in) full side opening and no central post to get in your way. Built from all Cor-Ten steel and CSC plated to a maximum gross weight of 24,000kg, this open-sided 40ft container gives you the entire length of one side as a clear, wide-open doorway.
Where Full Side Access Makes the Difference
- Loading long materials such as pipe, timber, steel or cladding
- Forklift access along the full length of the container
- Pop-up retail, market stalls and event use needing a wide opening
- Workshops where tools and equipment must be reached quickly
- Storing wide or awkward items that won’t fit through end doors
- Plant and machinery storage thanks to the extra high cube height
The absence of a central post is the key advantage here and the feature buyers value most. Instead of being limited to two door openings at the end of the container, you can drive a forklift straight in anywhere along the side, drastically cutting handling time and making it far easier to organize stock so the items you need are always within reach. The container still retains exterior hinged double doors at one 8ft end with two locking bars per door, plus three locking bars on each of the side doors, so security is in no way compromised by the wider access. A 28mm marine plywood floor on steel cross members handles heavy loads, eight vents promote airflow, and a steel bunded floor can be added at additional cost for spill containment.
Compared with a standard end-opening high cube, a full side access container is the obvious choice whenever speed and reach matter more than anything else. It blends one-trip, cargo-worthy build quality with a layout you simply cannot get from a regular shipping container, and that flexibility pays for itself every time you load or unload. Whether you are running a busy site, fitting out a workshop or building a pop-up space, the wide opening transforms how usable the interior becomes. Full dimensions and specifications are listed below.
It is worth remembering that a full side access container remains a genuine, CSC-plated shipping container, not a flimsy garden store, so you get the same weatherproof Cor-Ten steel shell and serious security that the format is known for. That combination of industrial strength and exceptional access is rare, which is why these units command strong interest from contractors, event companies and retailers alike. As a one-trip purchase the panels are clean and the seals fresh, so the doors run smoothly and the interior stays dry. If your work involves handling long, wide or frequently accessed stock, the time you save every single day quickly outweighs the modest premium over a standard end-opening container.
