Sea container
A 10 ft standard container holds 4 industrial pallets, all in one layer. Two layers need 2.40 m and the inside is 2.40 m high, so stacking adds none. Each pallet is assumed 1.20 m high with its load and 500 kg.

Not in this unit. Two layers need 2.40 m and the inside is 2.40 m high, so the count stays at 4.
The counts assume 1.20 m and 500 kg a pallet. At that weight the 10,640 kg payload carries at most 21 pallets. A pallet taller than 1.19 m cannot go two high, because the inside is 2.40 m high. Enter your own sizes in the Container loading calculator.
4 industrial pallets of 1,200 × 1,000 mm cover 4.8 m² of the 6.7 m² floor, which is 72%. The rest is gaps and strips too narrow for another pallet.
