How many square meters is a 40ft container?

A 40ft container floor is about 29.7 square meters externally and 28.3 square meters internally. This matches a one-bedroom flat’s main living space. The container holds 67 cubic meters of usable volume. A 40ft High Cube has the same floor but 76 cubic meters total due to the extra height.

Did you know?
A 40ft container does not provide twice the storage experience of a 20ft unit. The extra length changes how people organise space, making it easier to create separate zones for furniture, stock or equipment without sacrificing access.
