Packing weight budget

Keep a bag-by-bag weight list, including empty bags and packed items, and compare it with limits you enter.

Your input

Bags

Give each bag a different name and include its empty weight. Leave the limit blank if you do not want that bag checked.

Packed items

Use a bag name from the list above. Change an item’s bag name and recalculate to move it between bags.

Outputs are cleared when the input changes.

Result

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

Worked example

2 kg bag tare plus three 0.5 kg items and one 1 kg item totals 4.5 kg, leaving 0.5 kg under an entered 5 kg limit.

Method

Multiply each item’s quantity by its weight, group items by bag name, and add each bag’s empty weight. Subtract the bag total from its entered limit. Change an item’s bag name and recalculate to move it.

Limits

Airline allowances are not updated here; enter the applicable limits yourself and confirm by weighing. The tool does not determine security or dangerous-goods eligibility. Lists are not saved to a cloud account.
