Product specifications
When choosing between a 40-foot shipping container in Dry Van (DV) or High Cube (HC) configurations, the primary differences revolve around the height and the resulting capacity. Here's a comparison to help you decide which might be more suitable for your needs:
Dry Van (DV) Container:
- External Dimensions:
- Length: 40 feet (12.19 meters)
- Width: 8 feet (2.44 meters)
- Height: 8 feet 6 inches (2.59 meters)
- Internal Dimensions:
- Length: Approximately 39 feet 5 inches (12.03 meters)
- Width: Approximately 7 feet 8 inches (2.33 meters)
- Height: Approximately 7 feet 10 inches (2.39 meters)
- Volume: Around 2,350 cubic feet (66.5 cubic meters)
- Weight Capacity: Typically around 67,200 pounds (30,480 kg) gross weight
High Cube (HC) Container:
- External Dimensions:
- Length: 40 feet (12.19 meters)
- Width: 8 feet (2.44 meters)
- Height: 9 feet 6 inches (2.90 meters)
- Internal Dimensions:
- Length: Approximately 39 feet 5 inches (12.03 meters)
- Width: Approximately 7 feet 8 inches (2.33 meters)
- Height: Approximately 8 feet 10 inches (2.69 meters)
- Volume: Around 2,700 cubic feet (76.5 cubic meters)
- Weight Capacity: Typically similar to DV, around 67,200 pounds (30,480 kg) gross weight
Key Considerations:
- Height and Volume:
- The HC container provides an extra foot of height, resulting in roughly 12% more internal volume. This is advantageous if you need to transport or store voluminous but not necessarily heavy items.
- Weight Distribution:
- Both containers have similar maximum weight capacities, but the additional volume in the HC might allow for better distribution of lighter goods, potentially optimizing loading and unloading processes.
