40ft High Cube Double Door Container for Sale Adelaide
The 40ft High Cube Double Door container has doors on both ends. Plenty of loading space and easy to use. With doors on both ends, you don’t have to think twice about which cargo to place in the front or back of the container. This way, your cargo is always easily accessible, which is very practical! This container is always CSC-certified and complies with ISO standards. You can buy or rent this container from Fairdeal Containers. Ask our specialists for a competitive quote!
These containers are new-build, one-trip units delivered directly from the factory. They may show light scuffs, paint marks, or small dents from shipping and handling, but each unit is designed to remain structurally sound. The containers are certified for five years from manufacture, subject to the supplied certification documents and applicable transport requirements.
The high cube format provides approximately 2.89 metres of external height, while the double-door configuration creates convenient access from both ends for pallets, machinery, equipment, building materials, and bulky commercial goods. With approximately 76.30 m³ of internal capacity, this container provides more usable volume than a standard-height 40ft unit.

Double-End Access for Easy Loading
The main advantage of this 40ft high cube double door container is the dual-end door configuration. Instead of loading and unloading only through one set of end doors, users can access the container from both the front and rear.
This dual access makes it easier to load multiple pallets, position machinery, move bulky equipment, and retrieve goods without needing to unload items placed at the opposite end.
Double-end access is useful for:
- Loading several pallets at once
- Forklift loading and unloading from either end
- Machinery and equipment storage
- Construction materials
- Building supplies
- Retail inventory
- Warehouse stock
- Agricultural equipment
- Workshop and conversion projects
- Equipment-rental inventory
- Frequent-access storage
- Drive-through loading operations
The double doors can also be useful when the container is positioned between two loading areas, warehouses, or worksites. Plan the final placement carefully so both sets of doors can open fully and handling equipment has enough operating room on both ends.
For specialist oversized cargo requiring an open-frame platform rather than enclosed side walls, view our 40ft used flat rack container.
High Cube Height for More Storage
The high cube design provides additional internal height compared with a standard 40ft container. With an external height of approximately 2.89 metres and an internal height of approximately 2.70 metres, the unit provides extra clearance for tall goods, machinery, shelving, pallet stacks, and bulky equipment.
The additional height is useful for:
- Tall machinery
- High shelving and racking
- Stacked pallets
- Large cartons
- Construction materials
- Event structures
- Industrial equipment
- Commercial stock
- Furniture
- Agricultural machinery
- Workshop storage
- Oversized tools and components
The high cube structure provides more usable space without increasing the standard 40ft length and width. This allows businesses to maximise storage capacity while retaining a practical footprint for delivery and placement.

New One-Trip Container Condition
These 40ft high cube double door containers are new-build, one-trip units supplied directly from the factory. One-trip generally means the container has completed one international cargo journey before reaching its first destination.
New one-trip condition can provide:
- Minimal previous freight use
- Cleaner internal and external appearance
- Fewer signs of wear than a used unit
- Strong long-term service potential
- Suitable base for storage or conversion
- Professional appearance for commercial sites
- Improved choice for customers who value condition
Light scuffs, shipping marks, handling scratches, or small dents may occur during factory handling, sea transport, unloading, and delivery. These cosmetic variations are normal for new shipping equipment and should be distinguished from structural damage.
The certification period is stated as five years from manufacture. Confirm the supplied container’s date of manufacture, certification documents, CSC status, and transport eligibility before arranging freight.

Durable Corten Steel Construction
The container is manufactured from Corten steel, a weathering steel widely used in shipping containers because of its durability and resistance to demanding outdoor conditions.
The Corten steel body provides a secure enclosure for stored goods and helps protect them from:
- Rain and wind
- Dust and debris
- General outdoor exposure
- Routine handling
- Site activity
- Unauthorised access
- Transport conditions
For long-term use, place the container on a firm, level base with suitable drainage. Inspect the roof, double-door frames, end doors, locking gear, corner castings, lower rails, and ventilation points regularly.
Lockbox Security for Frequent-Access Storage
A fitted lockbox is included to help protect a compatible padlock from direct tampering. This is particularly useful for containers placed at construction sites, warehouses, industrial yards, farms, commercial premises, event venues, and remote work locations.
The double doors are designed for frequent use and smooth operation. To maintain reliable performance:
- Keep door tracks and hinges clear
- Check locking bars regularly
- Inspect seals for damage
- Keep the base level
- Avoid storing goods against door frames
- Secure all doors when the container is unattended
- Use a suitable high-security padlock
- Consider additional lighting, CCTV, fencing, or alarms
Because the container has multiple access points, all doors should be checked and secured before leaving the unit unattended or transporting it.
Marine-Grade Plywood Flooring
The 40ft high cube double door container includes marine-grade plywood flooring, providing a stable surface for pallets, machinery, tools, equipment, cartons, building materials, and commercial stock.
The floor is suitable for:
- Palletised goods
- Machinery and equipment
- Construction materials
- Industrial components
- Retail inventory
- Event equipment
- Agricultural supplies
- Furniture
- Workshop storage
- Packaging and cartons
The final floor loading capability depends on the container’s construction, load distribution, pallet arrangement, and cargo weight. Heavy items should be positioned carefully to avoid excessive point loads. Use suitable supports or runners where necessary.
Underseal Protection and Ventilation
The underside of the container is undersealed to provide additional protection against damp ground and external moisture. Underseal can help protect the lower structure, but the container should still be positioned above standing water on a properly prepared base.
Standard ventilation grilles are included to promote airflow and help minimise condensation inside the container. Ventilation is useful for many general storage applications, but it may not be sufficient for moisture-sensitive products, chemicals, electronics, food, textiles, or temperature-controlled goods.
Use suitable packaging, pallets, moisture absorbers, shelving, insulation, refrigeration, or other controls according to the products being stored.
Delivery Options
Nationwide delivery is available, subject to location, access, scheduling, and transport conditions. Delivery may be arranged using:
- Hiab trucks
- Swing-lift trucks
- Suitable customer unloading equipment
- Other approved delivery methods
Before delivery, confirm the unloading method, access route, placement area, overhead clearance, and whether customer-supplied lifting equipment meets the container’s handling requirements.
Please note: This container does not include forklift pockets. Alternative lifting methods such as Hiab or crane offloading must be arranged for delivery and repositioning.

Delivery and Site Preparation
Before delivery, prepare a firm, level, and accessible placement area. The 40ft length, high cube height, and double doors require careful site planning.
Your site should have:
- Clear access for a 40ft delivery vehicle
- Adequate turning and unloading space
- Sufficient overhead clearance for the 2.90 m height
- No low branches, powerlines, roofs, gates, signs, or overhead obstructions
- A stable, level base or suitable supports
- Enough clearance on both ends for door opening
- Safe space for forklifts, pallets, staff, and loading equipment
- Good drainage beneath and around the container
- A clear route for future relocation
- Suitable lighting and site-security arrangements
- A confirmed Hiab, swing-lift, or customer unloading plan
Measure gates, access roads, turning areas, overhead restrictions, and the final placement location before booking delivery. A level base helps support smooth door operation and long-term structural performance.
Please note: This container does not have forklift pockets, so Hiab or crane offloading is required for delivery and repositioning.
