What are the dimensions of a 40-foot container?

A standard 40-foot container measures approximately 12.19m in length, 2.44m in width, and 2.59m in height, providing around 67 cubic metres of storage capacity. This size makes it a great option for large-scale storage and international shipping of goods. For items requiring additional vertical space, a 40-foot high-cube container is available. The high-cube model offers an extra 30cm in height, measuring 2.89m in height, which can make a significant difference when storing taller items or stacking goods. Both standard and high-cube containers are ideal for transporting large quantities of goods or creating spacious storage solutions.
