A 40-foot container can hold approximately 67 cubic metres, which is roughly equivalent to the contents of a large four-bedroom house. The maximum weight capacity for a 40-foot container is around 30,000 kilograms, making it an ideal choice for transporting or storing heavy items like machinery, bulk goods, or household furniture. This size container is commonly used for international shipping due to its capacity and durability. For those looking to store or transport very large loads, the 40-foot container provides ample space and versatility.
