It is a large steel box or structure whose length is almost twice that of a 20-foot container. Its width is also slightly larger than a 20-foot container, and its width is 2.5 meters.
40-foot containers are as tall as 20-foot containers. After integration in the means of transporting goods, we see the use of these containers in sea and land transportation.
These containers have more space due to their larger volume compared to 20 feet containers. On the other hand, due to the fact that they allow the goods to be transported in an integrated manner, they have significant popularity.​​​​​​
Due to their suitable material, these containers have the ability to transport goods on land and sea routes, and due to their hard material, they are used in warehouses even after retirement.
Adequate dimensions, high security and non-infiltration of water and dust are the advantages of these containers. In some cases, 40-foot containers are also used as warehouses or residences.
40-foot containers can carry goods up to 27 tons, and these containers themselves weigh about 4 tons.
In all eight corners of the 40-foot container, there are parts for connecting the crane hook during loading and closing the container on the floor of the trailer, which can easily be moved or restrained during transportation from these areas. The body of the 40-foot container is made of sheet It is a heavy shaped iron that prevents the goods inside from impact, water and even theft.
In general, the cargo weight is defined by the Maritime Transport Standardization Organization, and the reason for that is the control of the transportation of global cargo systems, which is about 30 tons for high-altitude containers and 27 tons for the standard. Of course, these cargoes vary depending on the year of manufacture and capacity of the container, and the placement of loads inside the container should be in such a way that the center of gravity of the container does not change or be disturbed.​​​​​​​​​​​​​
