How it works

Enter carton height and weight, select a pallet, and CargoKit calculates the maximum layers and resulting stack height within your height limit.

Formula

Stack height = carton height × number of layers

Worked example

30 cm carton × 6 layers = 180 cm stack. Max pallet height 198 cm — within limit.
