What Does Grade A Mean for This Container?
Not all used containers are equal. Therefore, it matters that this used 20ft high cube container for sale carries a Grade A designation. Specifically, Grade A means:
- Structurally sound — no holes, no bent frames, no compromised corner castings
- Wind and watertight — sealed against rain, wind, and moisture ingress
- Floor intact — hardwood floor boards structurally solid with no soft spots
- Doors functional — both door panels open, close, and lock correctly
- Minor cosmetic wear only — surface rust, faded paint, and small dents may be present but do not affect performance
In contrast, a Grade B container may have more significant cosmetic damage and reduced structural certainty. Consequently, Grade A is the recommended standard for storage, construction, and conversion projects — and the standard we apply to every unit in this listing.

Why This Is Our Best-Selling Container
This used 20ft High Cube container is consistently our best seller across Tennessee — and the reasons are straightforward. First, at $2,100, it is the most affordable way to get High Cube capacity — 1,335 cubic feet with 8ft 10in of internal headroom. Second, the High Cube height provides a full 12 inches more clearance than a standard 20ft container — making it noticeably more comfortable for storage, racking, and conversion projects. Third, Grade A inspection means you get a unit that performs identically to a more expensive one trip container for general storage purposes — at a meaningfully lower price.
Furthermore, the 20ft footprint fits in most residential driveways, commercial yards, and rural properties across Tennessee — making delivery straightforward regardless of your site.

- Construction companies — durable on-site storage for tools and materials that can withstand active job site use
- Farmers and landowners — weatherproof equipment and supply storage across Tennessee’s rural counties
- Container conversion builders on a budget — the High Cube height meets the minimum ceiling clearance for conversions, at the lowest price point in our range

Used vs One Trip — Is the $100 Difference Worth It?
Many buyers compare this used 20ft high cube container for sale against our 20ft One Trip High Cube — priced at just $100 more. Therefore, here is an honest breakdown:
| Used Grade A (This Unit) | One Trip | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $2,100 | $2,200 |
| Condition | Good — minor cosmetic wear | Like new |
| Rust | Possible surface rust | None |
| Floor | May show minor wear | Clean, unmarked |
| Exterior | Faded — may show previous markings | Original manufacturer paint |
| Best for | General storage, construction sites | Container homes, customer-facing use |
In short, if your container will sit in a backyard, on a job site, or in a yard where appearance doesn’t matter, this used Grade A unit delivers identical functional performance at a lower price. However, if you’re building a container home in Nashville, TN or need a customer-facing unit, the one trip option’s pristine condition may justify the small price difference.
