Linear Feet Calculator Widget | Calculator Campus

Choose Freight from pallets for trailer space, or Square Feet → Linear Feet for flooring and material runs. Use one calculation per pallet size when a shipment is mixed.

Calculation type

Freight mode estimates trailer floor space. Square Feet → Linear Feet converts an area into running material length.

Number of pallets (required) Use pallets with the same dimensions and stackability in one calculation.

Pallet length (in) (required) Length consumed down the trailer for each row. A standard GMA pallet is 48 inches long.

Pallet width (in) (required) Width used to determine how many pallets fit across a 96-inch trailer interior.

Area to cover (sq ft) (required) Finished area before waste, such as flooring, wall covering, siding, or trim coverage.

Material face width (in) (required) Use exposed face width, not nominal board width.

Advanced options

Loaded pallet height (in) (required) Used to warn when the selected stacking height exceeds a typical dry-van interior.

Stacking (required) Choose how many loaded pallets can safely stack vertically.

Trailer length (required) Used for the trailer-utilization percentage.

Waste factor (%) Adds extra running length for cuts, defects, and pattern matching.
