What the desktop software adds
Turn a stacking plan into package and pallet totals.
Multiply cartons per layer by layers per pallet to get the capacity of a full pallet. The calculator then divides the total carton count by that capacity and identifies any remaining cartons for a partial pallet.
cartons per pallet = cartons per layer × layers per palletUse actual warehouse or packaging constraints when deciding how many cartons can safely fit in a layer and how high the pallet can be stacked.
Useful for packing lists
Pallet counts, carton counts and total shipment weight are frequently needed when preparing warehouse instructions and packing documentation.
