» Sea Container Capacity & Measurements
The storage capacity of a container depends on its size. The most well-known and widely used containers are 20- (20’DC) and 40- (40’DC) foot containers. However, to meet the diverse needs of freight transportation, containers with larger storage capacity are used: e.g. 40’HC, a foot higher of the above-mentioned, and 40’PW and 45’HCPW in which standard size (EUR-, FIN-) pallets can be loaded side by side.|
