1 x 45' container has a volume of 86.0 CBM, but the actual loadable CBM of cartons would be less due to carton sizes...approx. 80CBM is a rough estimate, but would really depend on the size of the cargo you're loading into the container...
imagine the 86.0 CBM is if you filled the container with sand...
Assuming these are 9.5ft high 'high cube' containers, there are at least 3 common types
There is a significant difference when it comes to loading pallets where internal length, width and height are critical:
Euro Pallet Capacity (1200 x 800mm) per tier.
Standard Dry Van and SeaCell2 will fit container ships 'cells' ensuring the cheapest shipping costs. Pallet wides (because they intrude into the space of containers that would normally be stowed next to them on deck, cost more to ship.
54 - 56 cbm
40' HQ container total cbm is 68
if container is palltized 36.2 is the full CBM.if its not palletized it depends upon the item.length*width*height*total number of cartoons came from the comntainer.
56 CBM
According to http://adaptainer.co.uk 562 CFT are in a 10ft container.

40' HQ is 68 cbm
A 40' NOR (Non-Operating Refrigerated) container typically has a volume capacity of around 67.7 cubic meters (cbm).

56 CBM
According to http://adaptainer.co.uk 562 CFT are in a 10ft container.
Mathematically it is close to 77 CBM. But in international business it is generally accepted to consider 68-70 CBM for 40 ft HQ containers.
A standard 20ft container has a volume of approximately 33 cubic meters.
