Choosing new 78 × 48 containers
The 78 × 48 footprint is a long-format container for large or long parts such as panels, trim and assemblies. Check fork length, rack depth and dock-door clearance before ordering.
The 78×48 family provides the longest nominal footprint in this site’s main size guide. Check loading access and handling space carefully; outside length alone does not establish part fit. Compare 25, 34-inch nominal heights to balance part clearance with handling access.
For a new-container purchase, specify the manufacturer and model when consistent dimensions, lids, or replacement parts matter.
Model dimensions and ratings above are listed specifications. Ask us to confirm the exact model and availability for your order.
