Carton item fit calculator

Compare six ways to place identical items in a box, with space for cushioning and an optional weight limit.

Your input

Outputs are cleared when the input changes.

Result

Enter your data or use the example, then run the tool.

Worked example

100 × 80 × 60 mm fits eight 50 × 40 × 30 mm items. At 2 kg each with a 10 kg cap, the result is five.

Method

Subtract cushioning from both sides of each internal box dimension. For every length/width/height orientation, count whole items along each axis and multiply. If enabled, reduce that count to fit the item-weight limit.

Limits

All items in each option face the same direction; mixing orientations may fit more. Use internal dimensions. The calculation does not assess protective packaging, and box weight is not added automatically.
