What to Expect
WWT High Cubes typically show:
- Surface rust (normal, doesn’t affect integrity)
- Dents and dings
- Faded paint
- Worn flooring
All cosmetic - the container is still 100% weatherproof and structurally sound.
Conversion Ready
With 8'10" of interior height, you have room for:
- 2" floor insulation
- 2" ceiling insulation
- Still 8’+ finished ceiling height
That’s comfortable for most people - unlike standard height containers where you’re ducking after insulation.
