Detailed Description
This 20ft high cube container is constructed from Corten steel, a weathering steel grade that develops a stable protective layer when exposed to atmospheric conditions. The high cube configuration adds one foot of interior height compared to standard containers, increasing the total interior volume to approximately 1,320 cubic feet.
Grade A designation indicates this container is in good condition, having been retired from shipping service but remaining wind and watertight with fully functional doors and seals. Grade A containers typically show signs of previous service including surface rust, minor dents, scratches, and faded paint with shipping line logos present. These cosmetic imperfections do not compromise weatherproof integrity or structural function for storage applications.
The floor system utilizes 28mm marine-grade plywood panels secured to steel cross-members, providing load-bearing capacity for palletized goods, tools, and equipment. The double cargo doors feature two locking bars per door, compatible with aftermarket padlocks.
