Freight tools

Practical shipping references for time zones, dangerous goods classes, Incoterms, HS codes, pallet planning and everyday freight conversions.

Use the right reference

From a quick check to a shipment decision

These free freight tools help importers, exporters and logistics teams check common measurements, terminology and planning assumptions before asking for a live quote. They are practical starting points, not a booking, customs decision or substitute for route-specific advice.

Plan container space
Use the container calculator to estimate how standard pallets may fit into common 20ft and 40ft containers. Confirm cargo dimensions, payload limits, stacking rules and loading clearances before booking.
Check classification
Use the HS code finder for a commodity-code starting point and the IMCO guide for dangerous-goods classes. Final classification depends on the exact goods, materials, use, packaging and destination.
Clarify responsibilities
Use the Incoterms® 2020 guide to understand common cost, risk and responsibility handovers between buyer and seller. The chosen rule and named place should also be written clearly into the sales contract.
Coordinate global teams
Use world time zones for international handovers and conversion tables for common freight units. Check original documents whenever rounding or local conventions could affect a declaration or quote.

For a route-specific answer, share the collection and delivery points, cargo description, dimensions, weight, timing and any hazardous, temperature-controlled or special-handling requirements with Jenkar.

Freight tool questions

What the results can—and cannot—tell you

Yes. The freight tools are free to use in a modern web browser and do not require an account. They provide quick planning and reference information before you request a route-specific quote.

Use the container calculator for pallet-fit estimates, HS code finder for a commodity-code starting point, IMCO guide for dangerous-goods classes, Incoterms guide for buyer and seller responsibilities, and the time-zone or conversion tools for everyday coordination.
Yes. Send the Jenkar team your cargo description, collection and delivery points, dimensions, weight, timing and any special-handling needs. The team can confirm the practical route, documents and quote before the shipment moves.

Need the judgement call?

Use the tools for a quick sense check, then ask Jenkar to confirm the right route, documents and loading approach.
