How many 300 × 300 × 300 mm boxes fit in a 7.5 t truck?
300 × 300 × 300 mm boxes of 300 × 300 × 300 mm (also called 30 cm cube boxes) in a 7.5-tonne box truck — inner dimensions 6,200 × 2,450 × 2,400 mm. Calculated by the Cubestow engine on 2026-09-08.
Boxes may be laid on any side. 41% of the space used, 8 layers high, about 2,800 kg (100% of payload). Payload-limited: 1,280 would fit by space alone. Open this load in the 3D planner →

The answer in detail
A 30 cm cube. Cubes have only one orientation, so the answer is pure grid arithmetic — a good sanity check for any load plan.
Typical 7.5 t rigid with a 6.2 m body. Payload is limited to roughly 2.8 t once the body and tail-lift are accounted for, so heavy cargo fills the weight allowance long before the space.
The simple grid estimate is 20 along the length × 8 across × 8 high = 1,280. The engine's validated plan holds 560, below the raw grid because the payload limit cap the load.

Frequently asked
How many 300 × 300 × 300 mm boxes fit in a 7.5 t truck?
560 300 × 300 × 300 mm boxes of 300 × 300 × 300 mm fit in a 7.5 t truck (inner dimensions 6,200 × 2,450 × 2,400 mm), boxes may be laid on any side. That uses 41% of the 36.5 m³ available and weighs about 2,800 kg.
What are the inner dimensions of a 7.5 t truck?
Typical inner dimensions are 6,200 mm long, 2,450 mm wide and 2,400 mm high (244.1 × 96.5 × 94.5 in), giving 36.5 m³ of space and a rated payload of about 2,800 kg. Individual units vary by a few centimetres, so check the actual box for tight loads.
Why does the payload limit matter for 300 × 300 × 300 mm boxes?
Geometrically 1,280 300 × 300 × 300 mm boxes would fit, but at about 5 kg each the 7.5 t truck's 2,800 kg payload is reached at 560. Heavy cargo fills the weight allowance before the space.
How was this number calculated?
By running the Cubestow 3D load-planning engine on the exact dimensions above, allowing all six orientations, stacking with at least 80% base support and the container's payload limit, then re-validating the plan for overlaps, support and weight. Real loads leave room for dunnage, door clearance and uneven cartons, so treat the figure as the practical maximum.
