A standard container weight of 40,000 pounds ensures trucks don’t exceed the gross vehicle weight limit for U.S. roads. Keeping containers at standard weight allows them to be transported on roads without transloading first, but many companies reach 40,000 pounds before filling their containers. Partnering with Beyond Warehousing and using the heavy haul corridor to ship up to 58,000 pounds reduces the number of containers needed and leads to lower costs.
