How many cubic metres in a 20foot long container?
Answers:
contact an importer/exporter company and they should be able to tell you. Containers come in 20' or 40' lengths and the heights can vary according to specifications, tho' the widths are the same for all containers..
How wide/high is it?
To get the answer in 'cubic meters' you need three dimensions!
Width and height would be useful.
To answer this you need the height and the width.
It would also be easier if you measured it in metres and then you would get a direct answer.
The other dimensions of the container would be nice..
What kind of a question is that - how wide and how tall would help

A cubic metre of pure water at the temperature of maximum density (3.98 °C) and standard atmospheric pressure (101.325 kPa) has a mass of 1000 kg, or one tonne. At 0 °C, the freezing point of water, it is slightly less, 999.972 kg.
It is sometimes abbreviated m3, m^3 or m**3 when superscript characters or markup are not available/accessible (i.e. in some typewritten documents and postings in Usenet newsgroups).
Abbreviated CBM in the freight business and MTQ (or numeric code 49) in international trade.
