It depends on the size of the ship. The largest container ship, Emma Maersk, can carry up to 15,000 TEUs (TEUs equal to 20' container).
Containers used in logistics include standard intermodal shipping containers, which come in various sizes (typically 20-foot and 40-foot) and are designed for easy transfer between ships, trucks, and trains. Specialized containers, such as refrigerated (reefer) containers, are used for temperature-sensitive cargo, while tank containers transport liquids and gases. Additionally, flat racks and open-top containers are utilized for oversized or heavy cargo that cannot fit in standard containers. These diverse container types enhance efficiency and flexibility in global supply chains.
