Payload

Payload is the maximum load weight of a container. This weight is stated on the right container door. The load weight must not exceed this value. However, the maximum load weight can differ per country, so that sometimes the container cannot be loaded up to this maximum. When in doubt, ask your Embassy Freight contact person for advice on the load weight you desire.
