Formula
Positions = floor(length ÷ pallet length) × floor(width ÷ pallet width).
Layers = floor(clear height ÷ load height). Slots = positions × layers. Weight = slots × weight of one loaded pallet. The pallet stacking calculator is the layer count.

This pallet calculator fits pallet footprints on a floor and stacks them under a clear height. It is a pallet load calculator for the weight of a full room, a pallet stacking calculator for the layer count, and a warehouse space calculator, storage calculator, and warehouse capacity calculator for how many slots the room holds. Aisles you forget to subtract will overstate the count.

How it works
Positions along the floor are the floor length in inches divided by the pallet length, rounded down. Positions across use the width. Layers are the clear height divided by the loaded pallet height, rounded down. A 40 by 48 foot floor, 48 by 40 inch pallets, a 48 inch load, and 192 inches of clear height holds 10 by 14 positions and 4 layers, which is 560 slots. At 800 pounds each, a full room is 448,000 pounds. That weight is the pallet load calculator line. It is not a floor-rating check. If the slab is not rated for it, the geometry does not matter. This warehouse capacity calculator does not draw aisles. Shrink the floor to the block of storage, not the whole building.
Formula
Layers = floor(clear height ÷ load height). Slots = positions × layers. Weight = slots × weight of one loaded pallet. The pallet stacking calculator is the layer count.
Example
The pallet calculator shows 140 floor positions, 4 layers, and 560 slots. Full weight is 448,000 pounds. Turn a pallet 90 degrees by swapping the length and width if that tiles better.
Tips
A warehouse space calculator that uses the building footprint counts positions a forklift cannot occupy. Measure the storage block. Rack uprights and flue spaces also steal inches. If a pallet will not fit in the leftover, the floor function already dropped it.

Important questions
The count rounds down. A 40 foot run with a 48 inch pallet is exactly 10. An inch of column or a pallet that is 48.5 inches drops a row. Measure the pallet you actually have, including overhang.
This storage calculator does not know. It multiplies slots by the weight you typed. Ask for the floor rating before you fill the room.
Only as a stack of pallets under a clear height. Selective rack changes the footprint. Type one bay's opening as the floor if you are counting a rack, and the beam spacing as the load height.
The weight line: slots times the weight of one loaded pallet. It is not a trailer payload. Trailer and axle limits are on the towing and axle pages.
