Buyers planning a shipment of bay leaves often ask how much fits in a container. The amount depends on the packing, because pressed bales hold more leaf per cubic metre than cartons.

How many tons of bay leaves fit in a 20 ft container?

About 3 to 8 tons, depending on the packaging.

How many tons fit in a 40 ft container?

About 6 to 21 tons, depending on the packaging. These figures are approximate, and we confirm the exact loading for your order.
