What's the difference between standard and high cube containers?
High cube containers are 1 foot taller than standard containers (9.5 ft vs 8.5 ft). This extra height provides approximately 10-12% more storage volume and is especially valuable for tall items, container conversions, or maximizing vertical storage space.
