How many 30 × 24 × 24 in cartons fit on a US 48×40 pallet?

1 cartons of 30 × 24 × 24 in (762 × 610 × 610 mm) fit on a US 48×40 pallet, 48 × 40 in (1219 × 1016 mm): 1 cartons per layer, 1 layers within a 47.2 in (1200 mm) stack height including the pallet.

Best pattern: Grid

Cartons sit rotated 90°, long side across the pallet. All cartons face the same way in straight rows and columns, like a spreadsheet.

Why this pattern here: 30 and 24 in divide the 48 × 40 in (1219 × 1016 mm) deck cleanly enough that plain rows already fit 1 per layer, so no rotated or interlocked arrangement can beat the simple grid here.

Pattern comparison

A plain grid is the honest winner for the 30 × 24 in footprint: 1 cartons per layer, against no feasible split-row and no feasible pinwheel arrangement. The rows cover 37.5% of the deck footprint, and 1 layers bring the stack to 29.7 in (756 mm) including the 5.7 in (146 mm) pallet deck. One caveat: a grid has no interlock of its own, its layers sit in independent columns held by wrap and friction.

No better-interlocking layout exists for this carton on this deck within the computed patterns. Stack it column-aligned, corners over corners, and rely on stretch wrap or strapping for lateral stability.

These figures assume the height limit binds at 47.2 in (1200 mm). Weight is not shown here because it depends on the actual carton weight, the interactive calculator also enforces a max payload per pallet.
