How much CBM is on a standard pallet?

A standard pallet stacked 4 feet high holds ~1.25 CBM. Stacked 5 feet high, it holds ~1.56 CBM.

Why convert CBM to pallets?

Warehouses and LTL freight carriers charge based on pallet slots (floor positions) rather than loose CBM volume.

Convert cargo capacity. Input total volume in Cubic Meters (CBM) to estimate how many standard pallets are needed to pack the consignment.
