How Many Half pallets Fit in a 45ft High-Cube Container?
120 half pallets (80 × 60 × 110 cm, 150 kg each) fit in a 45ft High-Cube Container.
60 half pallets on the floor: 1 straight lane of 16 plus 2 turned lanes of 22. Stacked 2 layers high (110 cm each under a 269 cm ceiling), that is 120 by space. The 25,600 kg payload would allow 170, so space — not weight — is the binding limit.
