ABBREVIATIONS used for shipping containers

Below you will find explanations or container abbreviations that will make it easier for you to find your way around the indicated sizes and dimensions.

ABBREVIATION NAMEEXPLANATIONEXAMPLE
size’size = length in feet (1ft = 0.3048m equivalent)20’= 20-foot container (20 x 0.3048m = container size is 6.096m)
HChigh cube = higher by approx. 30 cmThe height of a standard 20′ shipping container is approximately 2.59 meters (8 ft 6 in). The HC 20′ container (High Cube) has a higher height than the classic container and is approximately 2.89 meters (9 feet 6 inches). So the height difference between a standard 20′ container and a 20’HC container is 0.3 meters (1 foot).
LClow cube = lower height by approx. 15 cmThe low cube container has the same length, but is lower. Instead of being 8.5 feet tall, the low cube container is only 8 feet (2.438 meters) tall. This lower height provides an advantage when transporting goods that jump over the standard height restriction or that are less bulky and do not require the full height of a standard container.
DDdouble door = double doorA container marked DD has two doors on the narrower side of the container (standard front and back)
PWpallet wide = inner width approx. 9cm (3 inches) larger, so that 2 Euro pallets can be placed next to each other with the longer sideA Pallet Wide (PW) container is a special type of container that is designed to hold two European pallets side by side. A standard 20′ container has an interior width of approximately 2.35 meters (7 ft 8 in). On the other hand, a 20′ PW container has a larger interior width that reaches approximately 2.44 meters (8 feet).
So the difference between a 20′ and a 20’PW container lies in their internal width, where a 20’PW container provides more space for placing pallets next to each other. This is especially useful when transporting goods on European pallets.
SD (OS)side door = side door from the wider side of the container open side = opening from the sideIf there is one opening side door, it is marked as “SD” by default. Sometimes these containers are also referred to as “open side” – opening the side.
Double SDdouble side door = opening side doors from both wider sides of the containerDouble side door – “double side door” which can be opened from both wider sides of the container
