Description
Experience high-performance modular living with this New 40ft High Cube (HC) Custom Container Home. Engineered from a premium “One-Trip” steel chassis, this unit provides a 9’6″ vertical clearance, offering superior internal volume for a spacious, open-plan residential environment. Finished in a professional-grade matte black industrial enamel, this unit serves as a high-durability foundation for primary residences, secondary dwelling units (ADUs), or luxury vacation retreats.
Key Technical & Residential Features:
-
9’6″ High Cube Architecture: The increased vertical height allows for the installation of recessed lighting, HVAC ducting, and premium floor-to-ceiling cabinetry without compromising living space. The 2.69m ($8’10″$) internal clearance is essential for a standard residential feel.
-
Structural Integrity for Conversion: Constructed from anti-corrosive, high-tensile Corten steel. The reinforced frame is designed to support custom modifications, including full-height panoramic glazing, bi-fold doors, and rooftop deck integration.
-
Precision Thermal Engineering: Designed to accommodate high-R-value closed-cell spray foam insulation and internal stud framing. The steel shell provides a vapor-tight barrier, ensuring energy efficiency and moisture control in diverse climates.
-
Modular “Plug-and-Play” Infrastructure: Built to international ISO standards, ensuring the unit can be transported via standard tilt-tray or crane. This allows for rapid site deployment and significantly reduced foundation costs compared to traditional site-built housing.
-
Low-Maintenance Industrial Finish: The factory-applied matte black finish offers high UV resistance and a modern architectural profile that eliminates the need for external cladding in most contemporary designs.
-
Sustainable Life-Cycle: Utilizing a new “One-Trip” container ensures a 50+ year structural lifespan while promoting sustainable construction through the repurposing of high-grade industrial assets.

“Bought the 40ft High Cube Custom Container Home in modern black from Cargo Container Supply for our investment property. The one-trip container base combined with the custom conversion is top quality. The high cube gives excellent headroom and the black finish looks sharp and low-maintenance. Only minor thing was we added a couple of extra interior lights, but the base build is already very complete. It rents quickly and tenants rave about the style. Great value and smooth process with the Cargo Container Supply team.”

“Ordered the 10ft Custom Container Home – Korean-Inspired, Minimalist Design online through Cargo Container Supply as a meditation and guest retreat. The design is incredibly thoughtful — light colors, simple elegance, and clever storage that keeps everything uncluttered. It feels much larger than its size and the natural light is perfect. Only minor thing was we added a small outdoor bench, but the container itself is move-in ready. Great craftsmanship and the Cargo Container Supply team was responsive and creative. Highly recommend for anyone seeking calm, functional living.”
