Container Dimensions
Standard Containers
General purpose containers — the most versatile in the ONS fleet. Built from high-strength steel, these containers withstand temperatures from −40°C to 70°C without compromising structural integrity or water-tightness.
⚠ In exceptional cases, specifications may differ. Cargo must conform to dimensional regulations of the host country. Contact your local ONS representative for exact payload limits.
