High cube containers

High Cube Shipping Containers are essentially the same as your standard shipping containers but have an extra foot in height to accommodate oversized items. They are also used for the transport/storage when slightly more volume or quantity of regular sized items are required. Our High Cube Containers are available right throughout New Zealand.

NZBOX 10 foot High Cube containers offer all the benefits of the standard 10′ but with the added bonus of an additional 300mm of height. Offering 18cbm of internal space, the extra height makes these units ideal for the storage of larger and/or more goods than a traditional 10′, while maintaining the more compact footprint.

NZBOX Google Review Products

I have been delighted with the professional and honest approach of this company. Stuart has been my contact and organiser with the company. I organised for 2 containers to be delivered to my property for a move of my household goods from Auckland to Queenstown. I was very impressed with Stuart’s approach from the initial contact to sending the quote. I found Stuart to be easy to contact and a very good communicator. We worked together for when I wanted the containers delivered for loading for when I wanted the containers delivered to Queenstown. Stuart also gave me advice on obtaining transit insurance and locks for securing the containers. When the containers were delivered to my site I found the driver to be very helpful and professional. We discussed the placement of the containers which made loading very easy. I also noted the containers delivered were of a very high standard and modern design eg heaps of breathing slots easy open doors and a security lock box feature to secure the doors.

Thank you NZbox
