Cargo Formula

CargoFormula is a free online toolkit built for freight, shipping, logistics, warehouse, pallet, container, and packaging calculations. It helps users quickly estimate common shipping and cargo metrics without spreadsheets, complicated software, or account registration.
The platform includes practical calculators for CBM, multiple-package CBM, volumetric weight, chargeable weight, LCL weight/measure (W/M), loading metres, pallet loading, TI-HI, pallet height, pallet weight, boxes per pallet, box size, box volume, void fill, carton quantity, unit conversion, container capacity, and pallet-to-container planning.
CargoFormula also includes an interactive 3D Container Load Planner for mixed cartons and SKUs. Users can estimate how cargo may fit inside 20ft, 40ft, and 40ft High Cube containers, compare loading options, check practical loading constraints, and plan multi-container shipments.
Each tool is designed to be simple to use while keeping the underlying calculation transparent. Where relevant, CargoFormula explains the formula, assumptions, limitations, examples, and methodology behind the result so users can understand how the calculation works rather than relying on a black-box estimate.
CargoFormula is useful for freight forwarders, importers, exporters, warehouse teams, logistics professionals, e-commerce sellers, packaging teams, supply-chain professionals, and anyone who needs quick shipping calculations.
All calculators are available online for free and do not require signup. The website also provides practical logistics guides covering topics such as CBM, dimensional weight, chargeable weight, W/M, container sizes, pallet planning, TI-HI patterns, carton measurement, and container loading.
The goal of CargoFormula is to make everyday logistics calculations faster, clearer, and easier to verify.
