How many 1067 × 1067 mm pallets fit in a 13.6 m trailer?
1067 × 1067 mm pallets of 1,067 × 1,067 × 1,000 mm (also called 42 × 42 in pallets, ISO 1067 pallets) in a 13.6 m curtainsider / box trailer (EU) — inner dimensions 13,600 × 2,450 × 2,700 mm. Calculated by the Cubestow engine on 2026-09-08.
Single layer, floor-loaded (standard practice). 30% of the space used, 1 layer high, about 9,600 kg (40% of payload). Open this load in the 3D planner →

The answer in detail
The 42 × 42 in (1,067 mm) square pallet is one of the six ISO 6780 sizes, used in North America and Asia for telecoms and paint. Two fit across an ISO container with about 220 mm to spare.
The standard European semi-trailer. Curtainsiders are loaded from the side, so pallets can be turned freely; the 2,450 mm inner width is what makes three EUR pallets (3 × 800) fit across.
The simple grid estimate is 12 along the length × 2 across × 1 high = 24. Here no mixed pattern beats the best uniform grid, so the engine's plan is exactly that grid (24).
Variants
| Loading rule | Fits | Layers | Volume used | Total weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single layer, floor-loaded (standard practice) (headline figure) | 24 | 1 | 30% | 9,600 kg (40% of payload) |
| Double-stacked (only if each loaded pallet is at most 1,350 mm tall and rated to carry another) | 48 | 2 | 61% | 19,200 kg (80% of payload) |

Frequently asked
How many 1067 × 1067 mm pallets fit in a 13.6 m trailer?
24 1067 × 1067 mm pallets of 1,067 × 1,067 × 1,000 mm fit in a 13.6 m trailer (inner dimensions 13,600 × 2,450 × 2,700 mm), single layer, floor-loaded (standard practice). That uses 30% of the 90.0 m³ available and weighs about 9,600 kg.
What are the inner dimensions of a 13.6 m trailer?
Typical inner dimensions are 13,600 mm long, 2,450 mm wide and 2,700 mm high (535.4 × 96.5 × 106.3 in), giving 90.0 m³ of space and a rated payload of about 24,000 kg. Individual units vary by a few centimetres, so check the actual box for tight loads.
How much does a full load of 1067 × 1067 mm pallets weigh?
24 × 400 kg ≈ 9,600 kg, which is 40% of the 24,000 kg payload — so this load is limited by space, not weight.
How was this number calculated?
By running the Cubestow 3D load-planning engine on the exact dimensions above, allowing rotation on the floor plane only, no stacking 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.
