Cargo Dimensions

As well as vehicle and semi-trailer cargo capacity

Before we begin

This guide aims to help players who want to set up their building material supply chain by providing information about dimensions of most cargo types as well as cargo capacity of vehicles and semi-trailers.

Please consider these points before reading further:

• Cargo cannot be placed sideways. This is critical knowledge for flatbed truck drivers, who may find themselves to be very limited by their cargo platform width.
  
  
• The information contained in this guide is also available as a Google Sheet here[docs.google.com].
  
  
• Feedback is welcome. Like the guide? Have a correction to make? Comment below.

Vehicles and Semi-trailers

Cargo Trailer WBUILDER HS4F	22	5	6
Cargo Trailer WBUILDER HS4B	22	5	6

Multi Trailer WBUILDER HS7S	23	6	8

Building Materials

• "Stacking on top?" refers to being able to stack other cargo on top of the material.
  
  
• Cargo can be stacked higher than 2 levels on trailers that have enough height space for it, but lower levels around the stack have to be filled out first. Thanks to Shadow Lunatale for the tip.
  
  
• The table preserves the same order of items as presented at the building materials seller in the English version of the game.

Makes sense, good to know, thank you! I'll amend this in the notes. And link this guide wherever you want, that's what it's for.

Good list, I was planning to write a guide about the same, including truck pack length as well as some additional tips. I've used the same test method as you did. If you're okay with that, I'd like to link to your guide for cargo dimensions and transport bed dimensions in my guide then.

About the limited stack size: You can stack up stackable cargo higher as long as the spot next to it is occupied.
I.e. take two packs of ceiling components and stack them. If you try to put a third one on top, it will not work and the game wants to put it in a free spot next to it. But if you put any kind of cargo at that spot, effectively blocking the lower cargo slot, you can stack it up another row, and with the HS7S you can add a fourth row to that as well.
I've put every material you need for the museum extension onto a single HS7S trailer, it was filled to the brim.

Thanks! My testing was done with manual loading too, but I've only tested common building materials, not special cargo. Will see about documenting and adding it to the guide too.

Great info - I was at the sawmill to get heavy wood for the hotel with the green multi trailer - It stacked 3 levels high - on top twice - maybe self load gets to 3rd level ?
