How the calculation works
Pallets = round up (bags required ÷ bags per pallet). Dry bag weight = purchased bags × bag weight.
A worked example
100 bags at 42 per pallet require 3 full pallets: 126 bags and 10,080 lb of dry bag weight, before pallet packaging.
What to check before using the result
- Some suppliers sell partial pallets; this tool assumes full pallets only.
- Dry bag weight excludes added water, pallet weight, truck limits and handling restrictions.
