630 cartons

630 cartons of 50×40×30 cm fit in a 26ft box truck (779×246×239 cm usable), stacked 15 along the length × 6 across × 7 high in the best orientation (50×40×30 cm), using 82.5% of the volume.

Typical 26 ft box truck interior; payload varies widely by chassis (often 4–5 t) — verify your vehicle's rating.

Method & caveats

  • Orientation-grid method: identical cartons, best of 6 orientations, no rotation mixing — the standard estimate for uniform cartons.
  • Watch the weight: limited to 4,500 kg — heavy cartons may hit the weight cap before the space runs out.
  • Mixed carton sizes pack differently — use the interactive 3D planner for real mixed loads.
