Cargo Simulator
Will this shipment fit? Enter your box sizes and quantities, then try a layout in 3D. See how many fit and where there’s room left before you load.
New here? Sign up and try all Pro features for 3 months. It’s a one-time offer, added in order after we confirm your sign-up—not switched on automatically.
We’re still preparing code signing, so Windows may show a security or publisher warning when you download or install. If you’d rather not install, you can use the browser version instead.
You can use the same core loading and analysis tools on the web or in the desktop app. A few file tools, such as interactive Excel 3D, depend on where you run it.
See a Beta label? That feature is still being tested and may not work as expected. It’s separate from the Basic plan.
Getting the containers and boxes ready.
Here’s one way to load it.
Turn on the circular view and move your pointer to peek inside. Arrow keys or a tap work too.
Spread the same boxes apart and they take up more room.

Let’s bring the boxes closer and compare the layouts.

Review the suggestions after AutoFill, choose the changes you want, and run the layout again.

IN PRACTICE
Work out where each box goes before you explain the layout to your team.
Have their sizes, counts and weights ready.
Arrange them in 3D and look for gaps.
Keep box positions and counts in a loading plan (CLP), as an Excel file or image.
Compare the plan with where the boxes actually go.
Complete your on-site safety checks before departure.
Inside the simulator
Explore cargo input, sharing and small conveniences in short videos. Captions are in English.
Use Risk Validation to take a closer look at flagged areas and suggested changes. These checks help you review a plan; they are not a safety certificate.
Move your pointer over a description to see it in action.
Choose saved cargo sizes, enter quantities and add them to your list.
Check cargo volume (CBM) alongside the space left in your container.
Check the center of gravity to see which way your load leans.
Review suggested quantity changes after AutoFill. Choose the adjustments you want and rerun the layout.
Export your 3D layout as a container load plan (CLP, Container Load Plan) in Excel, so you have a reference when it is time to load.
See where the boxes go in a loading plan (CLP), then take the sample file with you.
An example with 12 boxes, not company or customer records. QR sharing links are optional and can expire; this file has none.
Example layout · results depend on your settings
We tried 150 A, 100 B and 100 C boxes in a taller 40-foot container (40HC). Turning boxes and filling gaps took this example from 287 to 331 loaded boxes.
Box sizes: A 400 × 600 × 800, B 500 × 500 × 700, C 300 × 450 × 1000 mm (width × depth × height). Synthetic examples, not customer records. Results vary with layout and settings; maximum capacity is not guaranteed.
Import an Excel list of names, widths, lengths and heights, review it, then save new presets to your account in row order.
Supports mm, cm, m and dimension scales. Blank CBM is calculated from dimensions; blank weight receives an estimate, not a measured weight.
In the app, open Preset management → Import Excel. Similar tables are supported; uncertain values need review. Existing presets are never overwritten. Items saved beyond your plan allowance may be unavailable on your current plan.
FREE PLANNING TOOLS
Try the calculators first. Or send us your cargo details and ask for a free 3D loading review.
Will one high-cube container cover your order? Enter one box size and your quantity to estimate what fits. Compare 20FT, 40FT and 40HC options too.
Try the calculator →How many boxes fit on a layer? Enter your pallet and box sizes, then see how many layers your order would need and how tall the stack would be.
Try the calculator →Planning by workflow
Use one simulator and one consistent workflow for the loading space you need.
Enter your cargo size, quantity and weight. Try 20FT, 40FT, 40HC or 45HC containers, then see what fits, what is left and the volume it takes up (CBM) in 3D.
Choose your pallet size and try turning the boxes different ways. Look at the whole stack before you handle it in the warehouse.
Try your boxes and pallets in the truck's usable cargo space. Check the layout and weight balance before it is time to load.
Loading boxes, cylinders and pallets together? Place them yourself or try AutoFill, then check and export your layout without starting over.

Basic is a plan name. Beta means a feature is still being tested. To see how many uses you have left, open your account screen in the simulator.
Not sure where to start? Let's go through the basics.
Think of it as a place to try your cargo layout before loading for real. Put boxes and pallets inside a 3D container, then look around to see how they fit.
Enter the box size and quantity, pick a container and place the boxes yourself or with AutoFill. You can see how many were placed and how many are still left.
CBM is the volume your cargo takes up, in cubic metres. Enter its size and quantity to see that volume (CBM) beside the layout. Enough volume does not always mean every box will fit; shape and orientation matter too.
Yes. A pallet is the base that supports your cargo. Choose one, enter its size and try stacking your boxes before handling them in the warehouse.
Yes. Enter cargo weights to see the center of gravity and check for an uneven load. Validation results are a planning aid, not a safety certificate; check real loading conditions too.
You can choose 20FT, 40FT, 40HC or 45HC. For example, 40HC is a taller 40-foot container. Check the selected container's inside dimensions against the one you will actually use.
