20ft High Cube Tunnel Shipping Containers
Overview
A 20ft high cube tunnel container has doors at both ends, making it easier to load and reach items no matter where they sit inside the unit.
This setup works well for sites that handle stock often or need access without emptying the whole container. The high cube height offers useful extra clearance for taller equipment, stacked pallets or materials that need more headroom. Each unit is built from Corten steel to ISO standards and is fully wind and watertight, giving you a reliable storage option for busy commercial and industrial environments.
The two-door design gives the container more flexibility on site. It can be arranged as a single open space for storage, divided into two areas with an internal partition, or used as a through-route at events where controlled access is needed.
If you’re looking for more storage space, the 40ft High Cube Tunnel Shipping Container follows the same layout with twice the capacity.
