https://cargoduo.com/blog CargoDuo gives logistics teams a 3D plan for every container, truck, ULD, and pallet — so you ship more in fewer loads, across sea, air, road, and rail. en-US https://cargoduo.com/blog/how-many-pallets-fit-in-a-13-6m-trailer https://cargoduo.com/blog/how-many-pallets-fit-in-a-13-6m-trailer Sun, 30 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT The floor of a 13.6 m curtainsider takes 34 Euro pallets — 33 if you want tolerance on your side, 26 if they are industrial. None of those numbers is the answer to how many you can actually load: payload runs out first, and the drive axle runs out before payload. https://cargoduo.com/blog/ocean-freight-rates-2026 https://cargoduo.com/blog/ocean-freight-rates-2026 Fri, 21 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT Drewry's composite index closed 13 August at $4,339 per FEU, up about 74% year on year. Transpacific lanes climbed while Asia-Europe fell, Hormuz transits are still 70% below pre-war levels, and 49 sailings have been cancelled through mid-September. Here is the market as it stands, and what the 2027 orderbook says next. https://cargoduo.com/blog/shipping-container-dimensions https://cargoduo.com/blog/shipping-container-dimensions Thu, 20 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT A 40ft container's exterior is fixed to the millimetre. Its interior is not — ISO sets only a floor, and for weight there are three separate ceilings at once. Internal and external dimensions, door openings, tare and payload for every container type, and which figure is actually binding. https://cargoduo.com/blog/truck-overload-fines-turkey https://cargoduo.com/blog/truck-overload-fines-turkey Tue, 18 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT On 27 February 2026, Türkiye's Law No. 7574 raised truck overload fines to a tiered 10,000–60,000 TL, made the consignor separately liable for the first time, and barred foreign-plated vehicles from leaving the country until fines are paid. Here is the new table, the axle math behind the quietest fine on it, and how a Türkiye–Iraq carrier closes the risk at the loading dock. https://cargoduo.com/blog/how-many-pallets-fit-in-a-40ft-container https://cargoduo.com/blog/how-many-pallets-fit-in-a-40ft-container Tue, 18 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT A 20ft container takes 11 Euro pallets and a 40ft takes 25 — but only when some of the pallets are turned. Capacity tables by pallet standard, the pinwheel floor-plan math, the weight limit that caps double-stacking, and a real Shanghai–Rotterdam scenario. https://cargoduo.com/blog/cbm-calculation https://cargoduo.com/blog/cbm-calculation Mon, 10 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT What is CBM and how do you calculate it? Formulas for sea, air, and road freight, volumetric weight rules, and real container capacity tables — with worked export examples. https://cargoduo.com/blog/saved-a-truck-a-day-hamburg-lane https://cargoduo.com/blog/saved-a-truck-a-day-hamburg-lane Tue, 28 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT The honest version of the story — six months in. What worked, what didn't, and what we'd tell another team thinking about it.
