Standard 55 gallon drum measures 22.5 inches in diameter, and 33.5 inches high. You can fit ten in the container lengthwise, four widthwise, and either two or three stacked atop each other (depending on the height of the container.. if you have 110 inches of inside height, it'll be three high). So, if it's three high, you'll be able to fit a total of 120 in a 20 ft. shipping container. This is, of course, assuming that these drums are not on pallets.

How many 55 gallon drums can fit in a 20 foot long by 8 foot wide container?

To determine how many 55-gallon drums can fit in a 20-foot long by 8-foot wide container, we first convert the dimensions to inches: the container is 240 inches long and 96 inches wide. A standard 55-gallon drum has a diameter of about 23 inches and a height of about 34 inches. You can fit approximately 10 drums along the length (240 inches / 23 inches) and about 4 drums across the width (96 inches / 23 inches), totaling around 40 drums, assuming they can be stacked effectively and fit without wasted space.
