How this calculator works
Select a starting allowance based on item size, then adjust it for protrusions, overlap and protection. Wider rolls can cover the same area with less linear length. Enter the supplier’s roll length if you want a roll count to transfer to Budget. This estimates material use, not protective performance.
How to use this estimate
Packing estimates are starting points. Carton dimensions, item density and the way you seal or protect boxes change material use.
What can change the result
Measurements, provider specifications, packing style and local access conditions can all change the answer. Use the result as a planning range, then verify the actual vehicle, unit, product dimensions or supplier rules before you book or buy.
Planning note: Do not use this calculator as a substitute for payload limits, lifting guidance, building rules or professional quotations.
