District of Columbia roads and rules for 20ft and 40ft containers
- Width: standard containers are 8 feet wide, within District of Columbia's usual 8'6" legal width.
- Height: the usual legal height is 13'6". A 9 ft 6 in high-cube container sits higher once it's on a trailer deck, so say whether yours is high-cube when you post.

- Routes: expect tight historic-district streets and federal-property restrictions. Photos of your driveway and drop spot help haulers plan.
