For stampings, subassemblies, and repeat supplier movements, compare how many protected parts fit per layer. The 48×45 family provides more nominal width than 48×40; usable space still depends on the walls, doors, and divider layout.
Allow for the space taken by dividers, foam, or other part protection. Specify the access side and opening needed for loading. Match lids and replacement components to the manufacturer and model; a shared footprint is not enough to establish compatibility.
New containers suit programs that need a specified manufacturer and configuration across repeated purchases. Confirm the exact model, accessories, documentation, and production or stock lead time when pricing the order.
48x45 is the nominal size family. Use the quoted model’s actual outside dimensions for handling clearances and inside dimensions for part fit.
Measure the parts together with dividers or packaging, then check usable inside height and the maximum loaded stack height. Compare the listed height options after confirming the part’s orientation.
Orders ship by LTL freight, quoted to your delivery ZIP code at checkout or on your quote. Full truckloads are quoted separately, so send your quantity and ZIP code for a truckload price.
As a planning figure, a 53-ft dry van holds about 28 floor positions for a 48 × 45 footprint. Folded containers take far less space. We confirm the load plan with your quote.
