ℹ️ Pallet height assumed at 15 cm. Both box orientations are tested (no diagonal rotation). 100% local.

Calculate the number of boxes

Pick the pallet, enter the box dimensions and the max height: the tool gives boxes per layer, the number of layers and the total.

Best practices

  • Do not exceed the carrier’s allowed height
  • Balance the weight and wrap the pallet
  • Check the pallet’s maximum load
  • Mix orientations carefully (stability)
