Here's Why Heavy Haulers Knowledge of Shipping Container Dimensions is Beneficial For Relocation!

Standard containers measure 20'x 8'x8'6", but 40' and 45' containers have become just as popular. Made from 4mm thick steel and square tubing frame. The sides of a container are built from 14 gauge corrugated rolled steel. This gives rigidity to the container, which is then welded to the steel frame. The container floor is constructed of the same 4mm steel tubing that is used to create the frame. A 28mm plywood floor is screwed to the cross braces of the container.

The corner posts of a container are made to handle 153,000 pounds when as many as nine containers can safely be stacked atop each other, leaving a 7'2"x7'6" door on one end of the stack.
