ABOUT THE ESTIMATE

A USEFUL STARTING<br/>POINT FOR PLANNING.

Use the estimate to describe your cargo when asking for a transport option.

What does LDM measure?+

Loading metres estimate the length of trailer floor occupied by cargo. The calculator divides the combined cargo footprint by a 2.40 m reference internal width.

Does the result confirm loading capacity?+

No. It is a planning estimate. Trailer type, dimensions, stackability, cargo shape, loading arrangement and axle or weight limits affect actual loading suitability.
