While it varies from person to person, CEND offers customers a moving calculator to get a rough idea of the size and number of containers they’ll need. The following descriptions can give you a general idea of what you might be able to fit in our larger containers:
8-foot containers are normally all you’d need for the contents of a studio or a large room — think of a generous walk-in or storage closet. At around 4,000 pounds of capacity, this container can stow a bed/mattress, a loveseat, chairs, a carpet, a few minor appliances, and about 25 small boxes. These containers are perfect for students or singles with only a few larger items to ship. They also make for a great way to hold overflow from other container sizes.
16-foot containers are most suitable for long-distance moving or for shipping the contents of a two- to three-bedroom home. They can handle around 8,000 pounds and are about the length of an SUV but slightly wider. This size container can fit up to three beds, three couches and armchairs, several tables, 15 chairs, carpets, two large appliances, and about 30 small and 15 large boxes.
