10L Cubitainer Packing and Loading Data
10L Cubitainer packing and loading data helps export buyers calculate carton quantity, pallet plans, sea freight volume, warehouse space, and container loading before confirming a bulk order.
This guide provides LIQPACK’s standard reference information for empty 10L Cubitainer packaging, including carton size, non-palletized loading quantity, palletized loading quantity, and 20GP, 40GP, and 40HQ container loading options.
The 10L Cubitainer is often reviewed by buyers searching for a 2.5 gallon Cubitainer or a 10 liter liquid container. Final selection should be based on the required filling volume, closure type, carton structure, pallet requirement, and destination warehouse handling method.

10L Cubitainer Packing and Loading Overview
A 10L Cubitainer is folded before carton packing to reduce shipment volume and improve export packing efficiency. The standard reference carton size is 57 × 51 × 61 cm, and each carton contains 100 pcs of empty 10L Cubitainers.
This 10L Cubitainer packaging data is intended for empty Cubitainer export shipments. It is not intended for filled liquid products. Filled product shipping should be reviewed separately according to liquid weight, carton strength, pallet requirement, storage condition, and transport regulation.
For bulk orders, buyers should confirm whether the shipment requires palletized loading, carton marks, pallet labels, special warehouse labels, or customized shipping instructions before final quotation.
| Standard Reference | Data |
|---|---|
| Product | 10L Cubitainer |
| Common search reference | 2.5 gallon Cubitainer / 10 liter Cubitainer |
| Carton size | 57 × 51 × 61 cm |
| Packing quantity | 100 pcs per carton |

Non-Palletized 10L Cubitainer Packing and Loading
Non-palletized loading allows more empty 10L Cubitainers to be loaded into each container because the cartons are loaded directly without pallets. This option is usually selected when the buyer wants to maximize container quantity and reduce unit freight cost.
Non-palletized loading is suitable for buyers whose destination warehouse can handle loose cartons manually or through local unloading arrangements. It provides better container utilization, but the buyer should confirm whether the receiving warehouse can accept loose carton unloading without pallets.
| Container Type | Cartons | 10L Cubitainer Quantity |
|---|---|---|
| 20GP | 150 boxes | 15,000 pcs |
| 40GP | 300 boxes | 30,000 pcs |
| 40HQ | 360 boxes | 36,000 pcs |



Palletized 10L Cubitainer Packing and Loading
Palletized loading is suitable when the buyer needs easier unloading, forklift handling, better warehouse organization, and more controlled shipment management. Although palletized loading reduces the total quantity per container compared with non-palletized loading, it can improve receiving efficiency and reduce manual handling at the destination.
For 10L Cubitainer pallet shipments, LIQPACK can arrange export-standard fumigation-free wooden pallets or export-standard plastic pallets according to project requirements. The pallet height listed below includes the pallet itself.
20GP Pallet Loading Reference
This option is suitable for buyers who need standard pallet handling while keeping the shipment quantity suitable for a 20GP container.
| 20GP Pallet Loading Reference | Data |
|---|---|
| Loading quantity | 12,000 pcs |
| Total pallets | 10 pallets |
| Total cartons | 120 boxes |
| Pallet size | L 1.0 m × W 1.2 m × H 1.90 m |
| Each pallet | 1,200 pcs |
| Cartons per pallet | 12 boxes |
| Boxes per layer | 4 boxes |
| Total layers | 3 layers |

20GP Pallet
40GP Pallet Loading Reference
This option is often used for larger export orders where buyers require palletized warehouse handling and organized receiving at the destination.

|---|---|
| Loading quantity | 24,000 pcs |
| Total pallets | 20 pallets |
| Total cartons | 240 boxes |

| Each pallet | 1,200 pcs |
| Cartons per pallet | 12 boxes |
| Boxes per layer | 4 boxes |
| Total layers | 3 layers |
40HQ Pallet Loading Reference
A 40HQ container provides more vertical loading space, making it suitable for a higher pallet stack when the project allows this loading height.
For 10L Cubitainer 40HQ pallet loading, each pallet contains 14 cartons. The pallet structure is based on 3 full layers with 4 boxes per layer, plus 2 boxes on the top layer. This makes the total 14 boxes per pallet and 1,400 pcs per pallet.

40HQ Pallet
Non-Palletized vs Palletized Loading
Both loading methods can be used for 10L Cubitainer export shipments, but they serve different purchasing and logistics priorities.
Choose non-palletized loading when the main goal is to maximize container quantity and reduce unit freight cost. This method is more suitable when the destination side can handle loose carton unloading.
Choose palletized loading when the buyer needs forklift unloading, cleaner warehouse management, faster receiving, pallet labels, or better batch control. This method is often preferred by buyers with formal warehouse procedures.


loose carton loading
Palletized loading
| Loading Method | Best For | Main Trade-Off |
|---|---|---|
| Non-palletized loading | Higher container quantity and lower unit freight cost | More manual handling at destination |
| Palletized loading | Forklift unloading, organized receiving, warehouse management | Lower container quantity than loose carton loading |
| 40HQ palletized loading | Higher pallet stack and organized bulk shipment | Pallet height and receiving condition must be confirmed |

How 10L Cubitainer Packaging Supports Export Planning
For export buyers, 10L Cubitainer packaging data is not only a packing detail. It affects quotation accuracy, shipping cost, warehouse planning, and order scheduling.
Before placing a bulk order, buyers often need to calculate how many cartons are required, how much warehouse space is needed, whether the order should be shipped by 20GP, 40GP, or 40HQ, and whether palletized loading is required by the destination warehouse.
Clear packing and loading data can help reduce repeated communication before quotation. It also helps buyers compare 10L Cubitainer packaging with 20L Cubitainer packaging when selecting the most suitable size for liquid supply projects.
