Is one container size or a mix of sizes a better fit?

Measure order size, unused return volume, stacking fit and washing work. Do not mix sizes before testing modular compatibility.

What happens if you get the size wrong?

A wrong size costs you on every trip, not once. Below: the legal vehicle width limit in Turkey, the GEBHARDT Isotec TBX dimension table, and how a 10 mm reading error changes what fits.
