Height and weight both limit layers
The planner chooses the smaller layer count allowed by loaded height and maximum gross weight. It includes pallet tare in the gross-weight limit.
PALLET LOAD PLANNER
Turn cartons into
a load-limit model.
Compare carton orientation on a regular pallet grid, then cap layers by both physical height and gross-weight limits. The model exposes its grid assumption instead of pretending to solve structural palletization.

MODEL
Enter carton and pallet limits.
The model uses a regular aligned grid and does not create interlocking mixed-orientation layers.
A space-efficient pattern can still be unsafe to stack.
Regular grid only
Mixed orientations, brick patterns, overhang and interlocking can change cartons per layer. The tool intentionally reports a simple inspectable grid rather than claiming an optimized freight pattern.
Compression matters
Carton strength, edge crush, product fragility, wrap and transport conditions can limit stacking below the geometric maximum. Confirm the physical packing specification.
