Transport High Cubes Containers With The Experts Today
WHAT ARE HIGH CUBE CONTAINERS?
High cube containers are regular metallic containers used in land, rail, and sea cargo transportation. Their ease in enduring harsh conditions makes them essential for such shipping. They can easily be mixed up with the standard containers as they share some dimensions. The critical difference between these two is the additional 12 inches of space within a high cube container. Due to their increased volume, they are recommended when moving taller cargo. Despite their more prominent appearance, high cube containers are lightweight.

Trailers Used For Moving High Cube Containers
LET OUR SPECIALISTS CHOOSE THE BEST TRAILER FOR YOUR HIGH CUBE CONTAINER
When shipping a high cube container, it's paramount to analyze the choice of trailer. Due to their exaggerated height, shipping a high cube container requires a step deck trailer. A step deck trailer ensures highway height rules and regulations are adhered to. However, specialized trailers such as Lowboys and RGNs are also ideal for transporting these containers, especially when hauling oversized and heavy loads.
