Pallet3D is a calculator for checking whether the pallet layout in a container makes sense before you approve the loading plan. If you are comparing several arrangement options and want to see the differences quickly, you can do it right in your browser.
This is a practical tool for ocean freight forwarders, exporters, 3PL operators and planners who need a decision based on cargo data rather than guesswork. As an online service, the solution supports operational work in Poland and on international markets. It gives a single entry point for verifying the pallet layout before the plan moves on to execution.
When planning pallets in a container, most time is lost not on the decision itself but on comparing options and checking which layout truly matches the cargo. The container pallet calculator lets you quickly assess the pallet layout in a container and see whether the plan needs adjusting before you pass it on. This reduces the risk of working from an incomplete picture and speeds up the initial approval of the load.
In the container loading calculator you enter boxes or rolls with their dimensions and weight. The system arranges the cargo on pallets and then places the pallets in trailers or containers. You see the result in an interactive 3D view, which makes it easier to assess the layout, empty zones and room for adjustments. Available options include automatic, mixed and manual modes, pallet stacking, loose parcels in the free spaces and PDF export.
This approach supports load planning well when you need to compare several options without retyping data into separate spreadsheets or drawing the layout by hand. In practice it is a convenient trailer loading calculator and container calculator in one workflow.
The main benefit is operational: you reach a plan that can be passed on without extra clarifications faster. With arrangements such as 40 pallets in a container, it is easier to assess space usage and check whether a given option leaves room for the adjustments you need. This helps optimise the load space, but without promising a perfect result - the decision still depends on the dimensions, weight and how the cargo is prepared.
| What you see in the tool | Why it matters in practice |
|---|---|
| Cargo layout in 3D | Faster judgement of whether the plan makes sense before approval |
| Automatic, mixed and manual modes | The option to adapt the work to the load-preparation stage |
| PDF export | Easier handover of the plan further along the process |
If you compare several options day to day and need one place to check the plan, this calculator simplifies the decision. Instead of judging the layout by shortcuts, you can see it in a form suitable for further operational work.
Pallet3D handles boxes and rolls with their dimensions and weight, so it works where a plan starts from single packages and ends with a pallet and container layout. The tool arranges the cargo on pallets and plans their placement in the container, which is also useful when you use a pallet calculator and want to relate the plan to standard formats. The dimensions confirmed in the database include: EUR/EPAL 1 - 1200×800 mm, height 144 mm; EUR 2 - 1200×1000 mm; EUR 3 - 1000×1200 mm; EUR 6 - 800×600 mm; EPAL 7 - 800×600 mm.
If you are preparing a pallet arrangement in a container for cargo of known dimensions and weight, you can quickly check whether that option makes sense before passing it on. This is especially useful where the decision has to be made fast and the input data is already available.
For teams that plan loading locally and on international markets, quick access to the tool and the ability to compare options without extra deployment are what count. Pallet3D works online, so it supports the same process from preparing the data to the initial approval of the layout. It is a sensible way of working for people who want to compare a plan and immediately pass it on to operations.
It depends on the container type (20′, 40′, 40 HC) and the dimensions and weight of the pallets. Enter your cargo data in the calculator and the system will place the pallets in the container and show the result in interactive 3D - for example for arrangements such as 40 pallets in a container.
The dimensions confirmed in the database include: EUR/EPAL 1 (1200×800 mm, height 144 mm), EUR 2 (1200×1000 mm), EUR 3 (1000×1200 mm), EUR 6 (800×600 mm) and EPAL 7 (800×600 mm), as well as any custom dimensions.
