Kübox Freight Cube – Collapsible Engineered Pallet Shipping Crate
When you need freight, simplify the crate. Kübox Freight Cube is a reusable, collapsible container for palletized shipments. It provides an alternative to traditional wood crating for suitable equipment, components and other valuable cargo.
Plan for the complete palletized shipment. Choose by usable interior space, including room for cushioning, supports and restraint. Confirm the finished exterior dimensions and total weight, including the container, pallet, contents and packing materials, before arranging freight.

How does Kübox Freight Cube work?
Heavy corrugated panels, laminated structural profiles, corner hubs and locking fasteners form a protective container used with a suitable pallet. The Kübox container assembles without additional tools.
The pallet supports the load and provides access for handling equipment. Internal supports, cushioning and restraint must suit the contents and the planned freight journey.
After delivery, the container can be reopened, reused or disassembled for storage and return. Inspect the container, pallet and packing materials before each shipment and replace damaged components as needed.
How should I pack and secure the load?
Measure the complete item, including handles, mounting feet, fittings and other projections. Allow sufficient interior space for suitable cushioning, supports and restraint.
Support heavy equipment at appropriate load-bearing points. Distribute concentrated loads appropriately and protect delicate projections from impact and from carrying weight.
Secure the contents and container to the pallet using a method appropriate to the load. The outer container does not replace the need for internal restraint or pallet securement.
Keep the center of gravity and handling stability in mind. Confirm that the pallet and complete packing arrangement are suitable for the shipment.
What should I arrange for pickup, delivery and returns?
Give your freight provider the complete exterior dimensions and total packed weight, including the pallet. Confirm the required shipment description, freight classification and paperwork with your provider.
Identify any pickup or delivery requirements, including a loading dock, forklift, liftgate, appointment or restricted access. Include these details when requesting the freight quote.
For return programs, provide clear instructions for reopening, repacking or collapsing the container. Keep reusable supports with it and inspect all components before the next trip.
Need containers every month? Explore manufacturing licensing.
Buying Kübox regularly? Businesses using around 100 units per month, managing repeat shipping programs or ordering recurring custom sizes may want to evaluate manufacturing under license.
A manufacturing license provides a path to produce approved Kübox components locally and assemble containers close to your operation, with required proprietary components supplied under the licensing agreement.
Compare purchasing finished containers with licensed production based on your sizes, volume, reuse, equipment, labor and location. The volume example is a starting point for discussion, not a minimum requirement or a guarantee of savings.
Find the right size: Select a Kübox large enough to fit the wrapped items with at least 2-3 inches of cushioning material on all sides (bottom, top, and all four sides).

- 8 plastic corner hubs
- 16+ locking pins
- Pin removal tool
- Plastic pallet
- 2 lashing straps

Assemble
Kübox is shipped collapsed, like a 7-inch-high sandwich. Assembling is easy and requires no additional tools. Watch how-to videos here.
Place your Kübox on a flat surface.
- Remove the black plastic corner hubs, and take the top lid off.
- Remove the 4 small cardboard spacers from each corner (pack them inside your container, you'll need them later).
- Take the panels and end-walls out of the container.
- Insert the end-walls into the base.
- Fit the panels into the base and the end-walls.
After packing and securing your items inside the Kübox:
- Place the lid on top of the 4 cardboard walls.
- Place the four plastic hubs on each corner of the top lid.
- Insert two plastic pins per corner hub until it clicks. Make sure to place the pins on the top lid and the base of the container to secure the 8 corner hubs.
Pack
Packing fragile items correctly is crucial to ensure they arrive at their destination safely.
Watch out for:
- Items in direct contact with the Kübox walls.
- Fragile items in contact with other items.
- Empty spaces and loose contents.
- Overpacking.
Cushioning:
Items must not touch the crate walls directly.
Use bubble wrap, foam, or other cushioning so items “float” in the center of the crate.
- No empty spaces. Fill voids with cushioning (bubble wrap, foam, or air pillows).
- Clothing, bedding, or soft goods may be used only as secondary filler — never as a substitute for proper wrapping.
Wrapping:
Each item should be wrapped individually to prevent item-to-item damage.
- Wrap each item with at least 2 inches of bubble wrap or foam on all sides.
- Fragile items (glass, ceramics, electronics) should be double-wrapped for added protection.
- Never use paper wrapping as a cushion — it offers no impact protection.
Weight Balance
- Do not exceed the weight limit for each Kübox.
- Distribute weight evenly to avoid pressure points.
- Lid must lock securely and flat, without bulging.
Final Check
- Shake the crate gently — nothing should rattle.
- Confirm all items are cushioned on every side.
Water-proofing:
- Place the plastic cover on the Kübox to protect your items from getting wet.
