Premium IICL 6 one trip shipping container 40’HC depot Gebze (Turkey), 273 807-3

Are you looking for a top-quality shipping container that combines exceptional quality, above-standard height, and an attractive appearance? We present to you a premium 40-foot High Cube container in IICL 6 one trip specification, available for pickup at the Gebze depot in Turkey. This container represents the absolute pinnacle of the range for everyone who demands maximum reliability and long service life. Container transport is not included in the price; pickup must be arranged separately from the specified Gebze depot in Turkey.

Dimensions, load capacity, and volume of the 40′ High Cube

The 40′ High Cube container differs from the standard 40-foot container primarily by its increased internal height, which provides a valuable 30 centimeters of additional space. Let’s take a look at the exact specifications:

External dimensions:

• length: 12,192 mm (40 feet)
• width: 2,438 mm (8 feet)
• height: 2,896 mm (9 feet 6 inches)

Internal dimensions:

• length: 12,032 mm
• width: 2,352 mm
• height: 2,698 mm

Load capacity and volume:

• maximum gross weight: 30,480 kg
• tare weight of the container: approximately 3,900 kg
• payload: approximately 26,580 kg
• internal volume: 76.3 m³

For comparison, a standard 40-foot container offers a volume of approximately 67.6 m³. The High Cube version thus provides almost 9 cubic meters more space, which you will appreciate when storing bulkier items or when planning conversions where every centimeter of height matters. Dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.

What does IICL 6 one trip quality mean

The designation IICL 6 represents the highest standard of quality in the container industry. The abbreviation IICL (Institute of International Container Lessors) refers to an international institute that sets strict standards for the inspection, maintenance, and repair of shipping containers. Grade 6 means that the container has undergone a detailed inspection and meets the strictest criteria.

The combination with “one trip” then means that the container has completed only one sea voyage with cargo. After this single journey, it was retired from maritime transport and offered for further use. As a result, it is essentially a brand new container with minimal signs of wear. Unlike multiple-use containers in the “as is” or “cargo worthy” category, IICL 6 one trip containers offer:

• flawless tightness and watertightness
• undamaged floor with no signs of stress
• perfectly functioning door mechanisms and ventilation
• clean interior free of odors and stains
• minimal cosmetic defects on the exterior surface

It is an ideal choice for demanding projects where every detail matters – from storing sensitive materials through site offices to representative mobile business premises.

RAL 7016 color – anthracite gray with character

This container is painted in the RAL 7016 shade, known as anthracite gray. It is a dark, elegant shade of gray that looks modern and professional. Anthracite gray is characterized by excellent resistance to visible contamination and at the same time does not appear as harsh as pure black.

RAL 7016 fits perfectly into industrial environments, but thanks to its neutral character, it does not look disruptive even in residential zones or commercial areas. The dark shade also helps the container blend better with its surroundings, which you will appreciate especially when placing it on a plot where you do not want the container to stand out visually. The paint is applied in a quality corresponding to the one trip standard – evenly, without chips, and with a long service life.

Standard door opening and ventilation system

The container is equipped with a classic door opening system with 4 locking rods on each door leaf. This mechanism ensures reliable and firm closing, even distribution of pressure across the entire height of the door, and long-term functionality even with frequent handling. The four-rod design is a proven standard that minimizes the risk of deformation of the door leaves.

A significant advantage of this container is the presence of 12 ventilation openings (Air Vents). These vents ensure natural air circulation inside the container, which is key to preventing moisture condensation and mold formation. Twelve vents represent an above-standard number that significantly improves the internal climate. This feature is particularly valuable for:

• storing materials sensitive to moisture
• long-term storage of furniture or textiles
• using the container as a workshop or warehouse with frequent human movement
• planned conversion into living space

Use of the premium container in Gebze and surroundings

Gebze is an important industrial city in Kocaeli Province, located on the eastern edge of the Istanbul metropolitan area. Thanks to its strategic location and strong industrial base, it represents an ideal location for a container depot.

Who the container in Gebze is suitable for

Manufacturing and industrial companies – Gebze is home to extensive organized industrial zones (Gebze OSB, Dilovası OSB). Local manufacturers of automotive parts, the chemical industry, electronics, and engineering will appreciate premium storage space right within reach of their operations.

Logistics and distribution companies – Gebze lies on a key transport artery between Istanbul and Ankara. Companies providing distribution of goods in the Marmara region will find an ideal transshipment point or mobile warehouse here.

Construction companies – Ongoing residential and industrial construction in the area creates demand for safe storage of tools, machinery, and building materials directly on the construction site.

Farmers and growers – In the peripheral parts of Gebze and adjacent areas, farmers operate for whom 12 ventilation openings represent an ideal solution for storing crops requiring natural ventilation.

Other locations in the Gebze area

The offer of containers from the Gebze depot is relevant for customers from a wide range of surrounding towns and industrial centers:

• Darıca – a coastal town with developing residential and commercial construction
• Çayırova – an industrial zone with demand for storage capacities
• Dilovası – an important port and industrial hub with chemical and steel industries
• Tuzla – shipyard, technical university, and a rapidly growing residential district on the Istanbul side
• Pendik – a large logistics center and transshipment point with excellent connections to the highway and railway
• Kartal and Maltepe – densely populated Istanbul districts where containers find use as site offices or mobile business premises
• Kocaeli (İzmit) – the provincial metropolis with a developed automotive and petrochemical industry
• Şekerpınar – a dynamically growing industrial area between Gebze and İzmit

The common denominator of all these locations is strong industrial activity, ongoing construction, and the need for flexible storage solutions within reach of the Gebze container depot.

Information on pickup from Turkey, Gebze

Container transport is not included in the price. The customer must arrange their own transport from the Gebze depot to the destination, using a local carrier. Likewise, unloading of the container at the destination is entirely the responsibility of the buyer. Upon completion of the transaction, you will receive complete documentation with all the information needed to pick up the container from the terminal. You will then hand these documents to the carrier of your choice, who will pick up the container at the depot and transport it to the required location.

It should be taken into account that the received container may not be identical to the one shown in the illustrative photographs. The depot contains several containers of the same quality category, type, and size, but their colors and availability may change daily. The specific color must therefore always be verified before ordering. Available containers may be either in the four-rod opening version or in the EOD (Easy Open Door) version with 3 locking rods. Current stock availability must be verified before ordering. For security reasons, customers are not permitted to enter the depot for personal inspection of the container.
