Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

Remote (streamable-http)

claude mcp add --transport http container-loading 'https://mcp.loadingmcp.com/mcp'

Container Load Planning MCP Server

Plan container & truck loads across 200+ equipment types from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client.

LoadingMCP is a container load-planning MCP server that lets an AI assistant compute 3D load plans, right-size the container mix, and check that a load is legal and safe to ship. It covers 200+ equipment types (containers, trucks, ULDs, pallets) and returns volume & payload utilization, centre of gravity, crush & securing checks, VGM, axle load, and CTU/IMDG compliance signals. It runs as a hosted remote server, so there is nothing to self-host.

Ask your AI: "Plan a 40HC load for these pallets" or "What's the cheapest container mix for 48 m³ at 19 t?"

Coverage

  • 200+ equipment types — 20'/40'/45' containers, high cubes, reefers, open-tops, flat-racks, box/curtain-side trucks, air ULDs, and standard pallets — each with internal dimensions (mm) and max payload (kg)
  • 3D bin-packing engine — real placement, not a volume guess. Drums and pipes hex-nest; big bags and sacks load on top and are never crushed; hazmat classes drive IMDG segregation
  • Compliance & safety — volume + payload utilization %, centre of gravity, crush-protection violations, securing/bracing checklist, VGM, and axle-load figures
  • Right-sizing — auto-selects the cheapest container/truck that fits when you don't name one

Sister product to TrackingMCP (ocean container tracking) and SchedulesMCP (sailing schedules & reliability).

Tools

ToolWhat it does
list_equipmentList the container, truck, ULD, and pallet types LoadingMCP can plan into, with internal dimensions (mm) and max payload (kg).
suggest_containersQuick volume + weight estimate of how many of which container to use, given total cargo volume (m³) and weight (kg).
plan_loadCompute a 3D load plan: equipment used, utilization (volume & payload %), centre of gravity, crush-protection violations, and a securing checklist. Cargo type drives realism (drums/pipes hex-nest, big bags load on top). Omit the equipment code to auto right-size.
export_planExport a machine-readable loading work order: numbered stuffing sequence (which SKU, where, in what order and orientation), securing/bracing actions, declarable VGM / axle / CoG figures, and an optional retailer (Amazon FBA / Walmart) inbound-packaging check.

Quick connect

The server is hosted at https://mcp.loadingmcp.com/mcp. Try it with zero signup using the public demo key lmcp_demo_public (clearly-labelled synthetic plans from the offline preview packer). A real API key runs the full 200+ equipment catalogue and the production PackingSolver optimizer.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "container-loading": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.loadingmcp.com/mcp",
               "--header", "Authorization: Bearer lmcp_demo_public"]
    }
  }
}
Cursor / Windsurf / VS Code (native HTTP MCP)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "container-loading": {
      "url": "https://mcp.loadingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer lmcp_demo_public" }
    }
  }
}

Replace lmcp_demo_public with a key from loadingmcp.com/mcp. Don't add "type": "streamable-http" — Claude Desktop rejects unknown config fields; Cursor/Windsurf infer transport from url. Registry ID: io.github.lxxmng/container-loading.

Example prompts

  • "Plan a 40HC load for these pallets."
  • "What's the cheapest container mix for 48 m³ at 19 t?"
  • "Right-size a container for 120 drums of 200 L each."
  • "Check the centre of gravity and axle load for this truck load."
  • "Which equipment types can hold a 12 m pipe bundle?"
  • "Export a stuffing sequence and VGM for this 40' load."

Truthfulness

Demo output is synthetic and clearly labelled. export_plan is decision support to help you MEET published retailer/carrier specs — verify in your own portal; it is not a retailer certification.

Frequently asked questions

What is io.github.lxxmng/container-loading?

Plan optimal container & truck loads: 3D layouts, utilization, centre of gravity, crush checks.

How do I install io.github.lxxmng/container-loading?

It runs as a remote server. In Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http container-loading 'https://mcp.loadingmcp.com/mcp'. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.

Does io.github.lxxmng/container-loading need an API key?

Its registry entry lists no required key or secret. Some features may still need an account with the service it connects to.

Is io.github.lxxmng/container-loading open source?

Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.

Who maintains io.github.lxxmng/container-loading?

It is published by lxxmng. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.

From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
