A 40-foot container is a standard shipping container used for transporting goods across land and sea. It measures approximately 40 feet in length, 8 feet in width, and 8.5 feet in height, providing a large storage capacity of about 2,390 cubic feet. These containers are commonly made of steel and are designed to be durable and weather-resistant. These containers are often used in international shipping and logistics, making them essential for global trade. They can be easily loaded onto ships, trucks, and trains, facilitating the movement of goods. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) sets the specifications for these containers to ensure compatibility across different transport modes.
