Wooden Crate

A freight crate is built to size, but stock sizes set the interior unless you order a custom build.

Wooden Crate

Typical Measurements

Interior length

48 in (typical stock)

Interior width

40 in (typical stock)

Interior height

36 in (typical stock)

Lid opening width

40 in (full top access)

These are planning defaults. Measure your real opening before buying, moving, or booking delivery.

Stock crates run pallet-sized (about 48x40 in); larger items need a custom build.
Top-loading lid gives full opening, so interior dimensions are the only real limit.
Leave 2-4 in of clearance for foam or bracing around fragile items.
