CBM Calculator | Cargo Cubic Meter & Container Space Estimator
Calculate total cubic meters (CBM), cubic feet (CFT), and gross weight for multiple carton sizes. Estimate theoretical container space utilization for 20GP, 40GP, and 40HQ.
Carton Specifications
Theoretical Container Space Utilization
Calculations reflect theoretical geometric volume. In real shipping, carton deformation, pallets, and clearance cause 10-15% space loss. Plan with 85-90% safe capacity.

常见核算问答与避坑 (FAQ)
Q: How to calculate CBM from dimensions in cm?
Multiply Length × Width × Height (in cm) and divide by 1,000,000 to get the volume in Cubic Meters (CBM).
Q: Why does a 40HQ container only fit 68 CBM when its theoretical capacity is 76 CBM?
Real-world packing efficiency is around 85-90% due to carton irregularities, pallet space, and loading clearances.
