To what degree of precision do you need to know? A company can get sued or fined for not filling a bottle enough. You get a great amount of free milk and soda because they don't want to be accused of fraud. There is slightly more, but definitely more, than one gallon in a gallon jug of milk. For most purposes it is close enough. Gasoline pumps have stricter standards.

If you require extremely accurate volumes, most liquid standards need to be measured at 25 degrees celsius (if it doesn't say anything on the bottle about this, assume 25 degrees C is the temperature the volume was calibrated at).
