The calculator converts item dimensions into cubic meters, adjusts effective cargo volume by packaging efficiency, and compares it against usable container volume after aisle and safety allowances. It also compares total cargo weight with payload capacity to identify the limiting factor.

Stuffing efficiency tips

• Reduce empty cube in primary packaging before loading optimization.
• Use product mix planning to improve both volume and weight utilization.
• Validate aisle and safety assumptions against actual operational requirements.
• Benchmark utilization by container type to guide equipment selection.
