40ft High-Cube Containers for Sale in Houston

Same 40ft footprint, a full foot taller inside. That extra foot is the whole point: once you frame, insulate and finish a ceiling, a standard 40ft leaves you stooping. If a conversion is anywhere in your plan, start with a high-cube rather than retrofitting a standard box.

Shipping Container FAQs

How much does a 40ft high-cube cost in Houston?

Used cargo-worthy 40ft high-cubes are $1,555 and new one-trip 40ft high-cubes are $3,480. Delivery is quoted by ZIP code.

How tall is a 40ft high-cube container?

9'6" on the outside and 8'10" inside — one foot taller than a standard container in both measurements.

Is a high-cube worth the extra cost for storage?

For plain storage, usually not — a standard 40ft holds nearly as much for less money. The high-cube earns its price when you are finishing the interior, stacking tall pallets, or need to walk around comfortably inside.

Can I convert a high-cube into an office or studio?

That is the most common reason people buy one. Note that a permanent conversion is usually treated as construction rather than storage by permitting offices — see our Houston permits guide before you start.
