The number of pallets of 5-gallon buckets that can fit in a shipping container depends on the container's size and the arrangement of the pallets. A standard 20-foot container can typically hold about 10 to 12 pallets, while a 40-foot container can hold approximately 20 to 24 pallets. Each pallet usually holds around 48 buckets, so you can calculate the total number of buckets by multiplying the number of pallets by the number of buckets per pallet.
10 48" x 40" pallets will fit on the floor utilizing the pinwheel method of loading (must utilize 4 way pallets) one goes in straight and the one next to it goes sideways. reverse the loading in the next row and so forth
30 (two rows of 15 if the fork entry is on the 48 inch side and two 48 inch pallets can fit next to each other in the trailer).or26 (two rows of 13 if the fork entry is on the 40 inch side).The above assumes one layer of pallets (no stacking).
