How many 600 × 400 × 300 mm boxes fit in a 7.5 t truck?
600 × 400 × 300 mm boxes of 600 × 400 × 300 mm (also called 60 × 40 × 30 cm cartons) 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. 61% of the space used, 6 layers high, about 2,799 kg (100% of payload). Payload-limited: 480 would fit by space alone. Open this load in the 3D planner →

The answer in detail
A lower Euro-modular carton — the same pallet-friendly footprint at 300 mm high, typical for bottled goods and medium consumer products.
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 10 along the length × 6 across × 6 high = 360. The engine's validated plan holds 311, below the raw grid because the payload limit cap the load.

Frequently asked
How many 600 × 400 × 300 mm boxes fit in a 7.5 t truck?
311 600 × 400 × 300 mm boxes of 600 × 400 × 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 61% of the 36.5 m³ available and weighs about 2,799 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 600 × 400 × 300 mm boxes?
Geometrically 480 600 × 400 × 300 mm boxes would fit, but at about 9 kg each the 7.5 t truck's 2,800 kg payload is reached at 311. 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.
