What a 40ft high cube reefer is
A high cube reefer is the refrigerated 40 with an extra foot of height. Outside it runs 40 ft by 8 ft by 9 ft 6 in. Inside, the nominal figures are about 37 ft 8 in by 7 ft 5 in by 8 ft 2 in, which is roughly 2,281 cu ft, with a door opening near 7 ft 5 in wide by 7 ft 10 in tall. Tare sits around 10,580 lb, near enough identical to a standard reefer.
It is the ordinary box of the perishable trades through South Florida, so a refrigerated 40 arriving from the Caribbean or Central America is more often this than the standard height version. The interior figures are nominal for the type; the tare on the door of the unit you receive is the one your load plan should use.
When the extra foot is the right call
Refrigerated freight is usually bulky rather than heavy. Flowers, produce, boxed seafood and most palletized chilled goods fill a container on volume long before they approach the road weight limit, so height is the dimension that converts into money. About 280 cu ft more than a standard reefer, and enough interior height at 8 ft 2 in to make a second tier of pallets realistic where 7 ft 2 in does not.
If the load is dense rather than bulky, none of that helps and the standard reefer is just as good, or a 20ft reefer if the volume is small. If the cold chain ends at a domestic run rather than at a receiver, the freight is often better transloaded into a reefer trailer near the port, which releases the line's box and stops the per diem clock instead of sending it up the state and back.
What people get wrong: travel height, and the genset arithmetic
This is a high cube, so the height that has to clear Florida's 13 ft 6 in limit is the chassis deck plus 9 ft 6 in of container, not the box on its own. On ordinary routes a standard chassis carries it legally with little margin, and the places that catch people are local: a canopy over the receiving apron, an older overpass on the last mile, a dock with something built above the door. A gooseneck chassis sits the box lower and is worth asking for when a clearance is known to be tight.
The weight arithmetic has the same shape as every reefer. About 40,000 lb of legal road cargo is the published figure for a high cube reefer, what is left of the 80,000 lb gross after the tractor, the chassis and 10,580 lb of tare, and it assumes nothing is hanging off the box. A clip on genset with fuel generally runs 2,500 to 3,300 lb, and all of it comes out of the same number. Plan the payload with the genset in it, not beside it.
What to send to get it booked
The container number, the steamship line and the terminal come first, since they settle the gate requirement and the appointment. Then the refrigerated details: set point and units, the commodity, and whether the freight is already at temperature, because the unit holds a temperature rather than pulling one down.
Say whether a genset is needed and for how long. Send the cargo weight as it reads on the bill of lading, with the genset counted against the same legal gross. And because this box is tall, mention anything tight on the route or at the delivery: a canopy, a gate bar, a low dock. That one line is what decides between a standard chassis and a gooseneck before a driver is committed.

Fragen
Klare Antworten
What is the difference between a 40ft reefer and a 40ft high cube reefer?
Height, and only height. Both are 40 ft long and 8 ft wide outside, both lose the same length to the machinery end, and both need a genset off the plug. The high cube stands 9 ft 6 in tall outside instead of 8 ft 6 in, which gives about 8 ft 2 in of interior height against 7 ft 2 in, and lifts capacity from roughly 2,002 to 2,281 cu ft. Payload is within a hundred pounds either way.
How much interior height does a high cube reefer have?
About 8 ft 2 in on the nominal figures, with a door opening near 7 ft 10 in. Both are lower than the equivalent dry box, because an insulated ceiling and a raised T section floor take their share before anything is loaded. The extra foot over a standard reefer is what makes a second tier of pallets realistic, and the door opening is still the number that decides whether a loaded pallet actually gets through the end.
Does a high cube reefer need a gooseneck chassis?
Not usually, but it is the box where the question is worth asking. At 9 ft 6 in tall it is a high cube like any other, so the travel height is the chassis deck plus the container against Florida's 13 ft 6 in limit, and on a standard chassis that leaves little to spare. A gooseneck drops the box and buys the margin back. Whether it is needed depends on the route and the delivery rather than on the container.
Why is the high cube reefer so common on the South Florida perishable trades?
Because most refrigerated cargo through PortMiami and Port Everglades is bulky rather than dense: flowers, fruit, vegetables, seafood in boxes on pallets. That freight fills the box on volume long before it reaches 40,000 lb, so the extra foot of height is worth more than any extra payload would be. Once a trade standardises on a size, the boxes and the plugs and the load plans all follow it.
Can I stack two tiers of pallets in a high cube reefer?
Often yes, and that is the reason to choose it, but the load line inside the box still governs. Air is delivered along the floor and has to return over the top of the cargo to the machinery end, so the gap above the load is not wasted space, it is the return path. Stack into it and the unit will hold a perfect temperature at the front while the door end of the load quietly drifts.
Welche Innenmaße hat ein 40-Fuß-Reefer high cube?
Innenlänge, -breite und -höhe stehen in der Spezifikationstabelle auf dieser Seite, neben den Außenmaßen und der Türöffnung. Die Türöffnung ist das Maß, das entscheidet, ob eine Maschine hineinpasst, und sie ist kleiner als der Innenraum.
Welches Chassis braucht ein 40-Fuß-Reefer high cube?
Standard 40ft, plus a genset. Wir bringen das Chassis mit, eine Buchung hängt also nicht davon ab, was das Terminal an dem Morgen verfügbar hat.
Geht das auch mit Übergewicht?
Ja, auf dem richtigen Chassis und mit der richtigen Genehmigung. Übergewicht ist eine eigene Frage, unabhängig von der Containergröße, und die Häfen haben zusätzlich zu den Grenzen des Bundesstaats ihre eigenen.
Woher ziehen Sie 40-Fuß-Reefer high cube?
Port of Miami, Port Everglades, Port of Palm Beach, POMTOC, South Florida Container Terminal, Seaboard Marine, Florida International Terminal, Port Everglades Terminal, Crowley, King Ocean, MSC, Tropical Shipping, Antillean Marine, FEC Port Everglades ICTF, FEC Hialeah rail ramp and CSX ramp.
Was ist der last free day?
Der letzte Tag, an dem Ihr Container im Terminal stehen darf, bevor Lagerkosten anfallen. Wird er verpasst, läuft das demurrage täglich weiter, und deshalb ist ein pre-pull fast immer günstiger als Warten.
Was ist ein pre-pull?
Wir holen den Container aus dem Terminal, bevor Sie so weit sind, und stellen ihn auf einem Hof ab. Das stoppt das demurrage zu Terminalsätzen und nimmt den Druck von Ihren Annahmezeiten.
Was ist der Unterschied zwischen demurrage, per diem und detention?
Drei verschiedene Kosten von verschiedenen Parteien. Demurrage berechnet Ihnen das Terminal, weil die Ladung nach Ablauf der Freizeit noch hinter dem Tor steht. Per diem berechnet Ihnen die Reederei, weil ihr Container über die Freizeit hinaus draußen ist. Detention ist die Zeit des Frachtführers, berechnet, wenn ein Fahrer an Ihrer Rampe über das freie Zeitfenster hinaus wartet. Sie können gleichzeitig laufen, und so wird eine Rechnung schnell unschön.
Wie bekomme ich einen Preis?
Schicken Sie Strecke, Equipment, Containergröße und Hafen, dann kommt eine Zahl zurück. Angebote und Disposition laufen rund um die Uhr unter quotes@dariaslogistics.com.
Was ist in einem drayage-Angebot wirklich enthalten?
Der Transport selbst, dazu die Nebenkosten, die später überraschen: Chassis, pre-pull, per diem, demurrage, detention und Lagerung. Wir nennen sie lieber vorher, als sie später auf eine Rechnung zu setzen.
