Years ago I used to solve this kind of thing with Microsoft Solver and a bit of code :-)

There's the theoretical minimum size, based on the total volume. And then there's the tetris minimum size, based on best fit. And finally there's the practical minimum size - the one where you don't have to label each cushion with a number and have a detailed 3D map to show how they stack.

Online linear programming calculator for min size/volume
Hi. Looking to order a bespoke cushion bag for the patio furniture and trying to find an online calculator that will allow me to work out the min size requirements.
So, I have the following cushions (sizes in cm):
Qty 6: 64 x 64 x 13
Qty 6: 64 x 40 x 19
Qty 1: 48 x 40 x 19
Qty 3: 48 x 48 x 8
Any idea on the size I'd need to order to ensure all cushions best fit to minimize volume and size?
