How many 580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons fit on an Australian pallet?
580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons of 580 × 380 × 330 mm (also called shoe master cartons, footwear shipping cartons) on an Australian standard pallet 1165 × 1165 mm (stacked to 1.8 m) — deck 1,165 × 1,165 mm, cargo up to 1,656 mm high. Calculated by the Cubestow engine on 2026-09-08.
Boxes kept this-side-up (turned on the floor plane only). 97% of the space used, 5 layers high, about 330 kg (33% 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 square 1,165 mm Australian pallet, stacked to 1,800 mm including the 144 mm pallet (1,656 mm of cargo).
The simple grid estimate is 2 along the length × 3 across × 5 high = 30. Here no mixed pattern beats the best uniform grid, so the engine's plan is exactly that grid (30).

Frequently asked
How many 580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons fit on an Australian pallet?
30 580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons of 580 × 380 × 330 mm fit on an Australian pallet (deck 1,165 × 1,165 mm, cargo up to 1,656 mm high), boxes kept this-side-up (turned on the floor plane only). That uses 97% of the 2.2 m³ available and weighs about 330 kg.
How high can an Australian pallet be stacked?
This plan stacks cargo to 1,800 mm including the 144 mm pallet — 1,656 mm of boxes on a 1,165 × 1,165 mm deck with no overhang, up to 1,000 kg. Many warehouses and carriers set their own limits (1.2 m, 1.8 m or 2.2 m are common), so check the receiving site's rules.
How much does a full load of 580 × 380 × 330 mm master cartons weigh?
30 × 11 kg ≈ 330 kg, which is 33% of the 1,000 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.
