The typical dimensions of an intermodal trailer often mirror the standard sizes of shipping containers, with the most common lengths being 20, 40, and 53 feet. The common width is around 8 feet, with a height of 8.5 feet for standard containers and 9.5 feet for high cube containers. The cargo dimensions, on the other hand, are marginally smaller, allowing for the container’s structural components. A 40-foot container, for instance, features internal dimensions of approximately 39′ 5” in length, 7′ 8” in width, and 7′ 10” in height for a standard one and around 8′ 10” in height for a high cube. These dimensions render intermodal trailers highly adaptable, meeting diverse cargo transportation needs across industries.
