Free Goodloading alternative: DimPack3D
Goodloading is a browser-based cargo planning app for road, sea and air. It offers free registration with an always-free demo version and a paid professional tier, and covers axle pressure, permissible total weight and centre of gravity, multi-stop loading, 3D visualisation with a loading animation, and sharing by link or PDF.
Compare the workflow you need: import a carton list, plan a load, prepare a pallet quote or hand instructions to the warehouse. The tools differ in scope; this is not a ranking or a claim that every feature is equivalent.
