What fits, and what is left over
Enter your pallet and box dimensions. The simulator draws the load in 3D and reports the pallet positions used, how much of the usable volume is filled, and how much floor length, headroom and payload is still free.

The 3D view responds to touch, which would fight with scrolling here. Open the full simulator to use it on this screen.
pallet positions used, of the 18 a 48 × 45 pallet allows on this floor
of floor length still free beyond the last row, out of 473.6 in
empty — 77% of the 2,529 ft³ this container can actually use
Drawn to the same 30° projection the simulator's own canvas uses, from the configuration running in the frame above.
A fill percentage will not tell you where the room is
Open floor at the doors and a band of headroom over the whole load are both “23% full”, and they need opposite decisions. One takes another row; the other takes taller pallets, or nothing at all.
Everything it reports, every time you change a dimension
- Volume fill
- %
- Against the unit's own usable figure, not its theoretical volume.
- Weight fill
- %
- Against the payload limit, once parts per box and weight per part are entered.
- Pallet positions
- used / max
- Rows
- used / max
- Boxes per pallet
- count
- Boxes per layer × the layers that actually fit under the ceiling.
- Empty volume
- ft³
- Free floor length
- in
- Beyond the last row, and roughly how many further pallet rows that is.
- Headroom above load
- in
- Unused payload
- kg

- Print the view and the figures on one sheet, or copy the results for Excel.
Positions assume 48 × 45 in pallets with the 48 in side along the unit and no rotation, which is the rule single-part mode uses.

Any of these can be overridden with your own interior dimensions and usable volume. Stacking pallets multiplies the last column by the tiers that fit under the ceiling — the full pallet matrix covers six footprints.
One box size, or a real order
Single part
One box size on one pallet type, repeated through the unit. Set the box layers per pallet and how many pallet tiers to stack; both are capped at what the ceiling allows, and the simulator says so when it has capped them.
- Full or half pallet, wood or plastic, or your own dimensions
- Box layers per pallet, capped to the height that fits
- Pallet tiers, capped to the used stack height
- Parts per box and weight per part, in kg or lb, both optional
- The better of the two box orientations on the pallet deck
Multiple parts
Exact quantities for several part types at once. Each part keeps its own pallet type and its own pallets — two part types never share a pallet.
- Quantity per part, counted in parts or in boxes
- A ceiling on layers per pallet, set per part
- Whether that part's pallets may be stacked on each other
- Separate totals for parts, boxes and pallets per part type
What it does not do
It is a visualizer. It shows one configuration at a time and draws the consequence of it. It does not choose for you.
- It does not recommend a transport unit, a best fit or an optimal load.
- It does not check securement, axle loads, weight distribution or legal limits.
- Payload is measured against a single 20,200 kg limit for every unit, so on a 20' container or a flatbed read the weight meter as an estimate.
