How many 580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons fit in a 13.6 m trailer?
580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons of 580 × 380 × 330 mm (also called shoe master cartons, footwear shipping cartons) 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.
Boxes kept this-side-up (turned on the floor plane only). 91% of the space used, 8 layers high, about 12,320 kg (51% of payload). Open this load in the 3D planner →

The answer in detail
A typical footwear master carton (12 pairs) is about 580 × 380 × 330 mm, and is shipped upright so the inner boxes are not crushed.
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 23 along the length × 6 across × 8 high = 1,104, or 35 × 4 × 8 = 1,120 with every piece turned. Here no mixed pattern beats the best uniform grid, so the engine's plan is exactly that grid (1,120).

Frequently asked
How many 580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons fit in a 13.6 m trailer?
1,120 580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons of 580 × 380 × 330 mm fit in a 13.6 m trailer (inner dimensions 13,600 × 2,450 × 2,700 mm), boxes kept this-side-up (turned on the floor plane only). That uses 91% of the 90.0 m³ available and weighs about 12,320 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 580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons weigh?
1,120 × 11 kg ≈ 12,320 kg, which is 51% 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, 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.
