Bitumen Loading Difference of 40 ft and 20 ft containers
August 30, 2022
2 minutes

Infinity Galaxy’s operation team has shown you the difference in the arrangement and number of new steel drums inside each 20′ and 40′ container in the video below.

In each 20’ container, 110 new steel drums weighing about 20 tons are loaded.

In each 40’ container, 137-138 new steel drums equal to 26 tons of goods get placed.

Each of these drums has their own specification that you can check it on the New Steel Drum page.

After loading, the operation team starts lashing 40-foot containers to prevent any damage to the loaded drums in the container.

Stuffing costs of a 40’ container are usually higher than a 20’ container. Therefore, 40’ is often more expensive.
