Pallet Calculator
Pick a pallet standard (UK, Euro/EPAL, US or CHEP), set your carton size, and see the load build in 3D as you type. Box count, stack height, gross weight and volume update live, with warnings the moment you breach a height or weight limit. Download the whole thing as a spec sheet your 3PL or carrier can work from.

Volumetric Weight Calculator
Enter a parcel's dimensions and actual weight, pick a carrier (DHL, FedEx, UPS, TNT, DPD, Evri or Royal Mail), and see its volumetric weight, its billable weight, and exactly how much empty box you're paying to ship. Uses each carrier's published divisor, with Royal Mail's size bands handled separately.

Container Load Calculator
Pick a 10ft, 20ft, 40ft or 45ft container (standard, high cube or reefer), then fill it with loose cartons or pallets and watch the load build in 3D. Unit count, weight against payload and volume used update live, with warnings the moment you go over a limit. Get the whole thing emailed as a load plan your forwarder can work from.

HS Code Lookup & Duty Calculator
Describe a product or type a code you already have, pick where it ships from and where it clears customs, and get the commodity code, the destination's duty rate and import VAT or GST. Add the goods value, freight and insurance for a full landed cost breakdown. Live from HMRC for the UK, TARIC for the EU and USITC for the US.

Something you'd like us to build?
These come from the questions brands and 3PLs actually ask us. If there's a calculation you keep redoing by hand, tell us. It might be the next one.
