Space availability ? capacity?
Dear teachers,
please help me to clarify two things:
1. I need to explain to my customer that due to the size of his stand, we don´t know if it is possible to put there all the equipment as he had wished. I would say: " Note that we have to check the space availability for only 25 sqm, we actually don´t know if the space will be sufficient."
Can it work?
2. I need to inform the customer that we have to check the "capacity" ??? By "capacity" I mean how many materials our truck can carry to Germany . To verify the space available in the truck.
These two points are very difficult to explain, I hope you´ll understand what I mean.
Thank you
PAMELA

Dear Mister Micawber,
thank you so much! It was very of help. I didn´t know that "capacity"could be used also for the stand. Could I also say: "we have to check the space available in the stand"? could it work?
Best regards
Pamela
