Weight and density of materials
So you want to load a car with a particular commodity, but you're not sure how much of the commodity the car will hold, you can (eventually) look up the density of the products in the tables below, and find out how much the car can hold. Note, sometimes the car can hold more--sometimes much more--of the product by volume than by weight. The creators and maintainers of these tables are not responsible if you overload the car.
