How this estimate works

FreightKit keeps the working visible so you can sense-check the answer before using it in a decision.

Capacity = max of six floor(container dimension ÷ carton dimension) combinations

Container interiors vary by manufacturer. This simplified estimate excludes door clearance, weight distribution, pallets, mixed orientations, and loading constraints.

This calculator is a planning aid, not a carrier quotation, engineering assessment, or professional advice. Verify critical figures against current supplier and carrier documentation.
