If the cargo you are going to transport is sensitive to damage and must not be damaged, you should prefer curtain-sided trucks, curtain-sided mega trucks, curtain-sided optima trucks, curtain-sided maxima trucks, curtain-sided jumbo trucks and truck trailer models. The main criterion in this matter is the size of the cargo being transported. Truck selection should be made by taking into account the travel distance and duration. For heavy tonnage cargo, the number of truck wheels should be considered. In the fields of international transportation and international logistics, rental services should be obtained by taking into account the amount of cargo to be transported, truck dimension rules and customs conditions.

Dimensions and Volumes of Cargo Containers
The dimensions of containers are generally expressed in twenty-foot (20 foot) units. The length of a twenty-foot container corresponds to "6.1" meters. This is an approximate calculation that does not take ceiling height into account. If we calculate by also considering the length, the load a container can carry emerges in cubic meters. As a result, the capacity values of various cargo containers are stated below:
Container Dimensions Based on Cubic Meters and Weight
- 20 Foot Container Carrying Capacity: 33 cubic meters, that is (28.430 kilograms).
- 40 Foot Container Carrying Capacity: 68 cubic meters, that is (28.750 kilograms).
- These values vary depending on different types of containers.
