The dimensions of a standard 20' General Purpose container are:

Length: 5.919m

Width: 2.340m

Height: 2.380m

To calculate the volume in cbm multiply the length x width x height:

5.919 x 2.340 x 2.380 = 32.96cbm

Practically though, the usual maximum loading volume is around 28cbm, depending on the size of the cartons you are sticking in it. You can hardly ever pack it right to the edge and the top.

For a 40'GP:-

Length: 12.051m

Width: 2.340m

Height: 2.380m

12.051 x 2.340 x 2.380 = 67.11cbm

The same applies when loading as with a 20', drop roughly 5cbm to be safe with your capacity if you are planning a shipment.
