The dimensions
| Length | Width | Height | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Medium moving box | 600 mm | 400 mm | 400 mm |
| 40ft container (internal) | 12,032 mm | 2,352 mm | 2,393 mm |
The 40ft gives you twice the length of a 20ft, so larger furniture pieces (sofas, dining tables) fit lengthwise without disassembly.
