How this estimate works

FreightKit keeps the working visible so you can sense-check the answer before using it in a decision.

Fit count = floor(box L ÷ item L) × floor(box W ÷ item W) × floor(box H ÷ item H)

The estimate assumes rectangular items, straight rows, no nesting, no deformation, and no clearance or protective material.

This calculator is a planning aid, not a carrier quotation, engineering assessment, or professional advice. Verify critical figures against current supplier and carrier documentation.
