Referring to the General Purpose Container Dimensions above, the dimensions shown in the table are not fixed, that is, the external and internal dimensions may vary among containers of the same length and height due to the manufacturer. The container capacity is the total cube a container can accommodate. The term cube often refers to the cubic measurement of the goods packed.
The capacity (i.e., the internal volume) is determined by multiplying the internal dimensions, that is, the product of internal length, width and height. The capacity may vary among containers of the same length and height.
