ISO standards allow the production of containers of different length, not only of standard cross section 8x8 feet, but also with significantly increased volume due to the change in height. High containers are assigned the designation HC (from the English High Cube), that means "increased volume". Abbreviation HQ having the same meaning is less common used. Used sea containers of 40 feet, the sale of which is carried out by Proftrans Company on the territory of Russia, can be used for transportation of goods and as universal constructions.

All other dimensions and characteristics remain unchanged in comparison with standard 40-foot container. Using high container it is very important to remember that its payload (P) is not increased, unlike volume.
