High Cube vs
Standard Containers
Standard and high cube shipping containers primarily differ in height. Standard containers are typically 8'6" (2.6 meters) in height, while high cube containers are 9'6" (2.9 meters) high, offering an extra foot of vertical space. This additional height provides more interior volume, making high cubes suitable for taller cargo or when extra space is needed for handling equipment like forklifts.

Roll Off: When using a roll off, the shipping container will arrive on a trailer that will tilt back and place the edge of the container on the ground. The trailer will pull away and allow the container to slide, or roll, off onto the ground.
Flat Bed/Hotshot: When delivered on a flat bed or hotshot, our 20ft and 40ft shipping containers will arrive on a flatbed trailer attached to a truck. The customer will need to provide a means to lift the container off the trailer, which could be a crane, forklift or any other heavy equipment.

When scheduling your container delivery, you should tell us what direction you want the doors to face when the container is on the ground. That helps us figure out the “door orientation,” which refers to the direction the doors should face when loaded on the trailer.
Think about where you want the driver to place the shipping container and then also consider the shipping container’s surroundings. Those factors will help you decide between:
Doors to Cab:
The container doors are facing the front of the truck (toward the cab). This means the doors will be the last thing off the trailer during delivery. Ideal if you want the doors to face the back of your property or away from the drop-off point.
Doors to Rear:
The container doors are facing the back of the truck. This means the doors will be the first thing off the trailer when it's unloaded.
Yes, but due to the length and height of these containers you will have to assist in unloading the trailer and require a special type of transport. In most cases you will need a forklift or a crane that can lift 12,000 lbs. Please get in contact with us so we can check availability in your area.
