A square milk jug. The square milk jug is a variant of the one-gallon (3.785-liter) plastic milk container sold in the United States.

The cubic inch (symbol in 3) is a unit of volume in the Imperial units and United States customary units systems. It is the volume of a cube with each of its three dimensions (length, width, and height) being one inch long which is equivalent to 1 ⁄ 231 of a US gallon.
In the standard system the conversion is that 1 gallon = 231 cubic inches and 1 inch = 2.54 cm, which makes a gallon = 3785.411784 millilitres exactly. For nutritional labeling on food packages in the US, the teaspoon is defined as exactly 5 ml, [22] giving 1 gallon = 3840 ml exactly. This chart uses the former.

When the imperial system was introduced the tun was redefined in the UK and colonies as 210 imperial gallons.
Many drums nominally measure just under 880 millimetres (35 in) tall with a diameter just under 610 millimetres (24 in), and have a common nominal volume of 208 litres (55 US gal) whereas the barrel volume of crude oil is 42 US gallons (159 L). In the United States, 25-US-gallon (95-litre) drums are also in common use and have the same height.

Imperial units of volume are the same for both dry and liquid goods. They have a different value ...
