Abstract: Abstract Container loading and pallet loading problems are similar optimization problems. Their main difference consists in the number of different box types available. In this chapter, we describe an approach differing from that for pallet loading since now, in fact, all available boxes can have another shape. The proposed method is based on a contour concept. Moreover, we address the multi container loading and the (three-dimensional) strip packing as well. Furthermore, LP-based bounds are considered.
