The number of drums that fit in a 40-foot container depends on the size of the drums. Typically, a standard 55-gallon drum has a diameter of about 22 inches. In a 40-foot container, you can generally fit around 160 to 180 standard drums when stacked efficiently, depending on the arrangement and whether they are upright or on their sides. Always consider the weight limitations and any necessary space for securing the load.

How many 200kg drums can fit into a 20ft container?
It depends on the dimensions of the drums.
How many 200 liter drums will fit into a 40 foot container?
A standard 40-foot shipping container has a volume of approximately 28,300 liters. Given that each drum holds 200 liters, you can fit around 141 drums into the container (28,300 liters ÷ 200 liters per drum). However, practical considerations such as packing efficiency and the dimensions of the drums may reduce this number slightly. Typically, around 120 to 130 drums might be a more realistic estimate for efficient loading.

How many 55 gal drums can fit in a 20 Foot long X 8 foot wide container?
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.
