Do the math!
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 big are the barrels? You are missing the third part of the equation.
The number of boxes that can fit in a 20-foot contain can vary a bit by the size of the boxes. Anywhere from 700 to 1000 boxes is average.
