Calculate the volumetric weight of your shipment

Sometimes, large items with a light overall weight can be charged according to the space they take up on aircraft. In these cases, Volumetric Weight, or dimensional (Dim) weight, is used to calculate the shipment cost. It is recommended that you calculate the Volumetric Weight for every shipment that you send, then compare this to its actual weight. The greater weight of the two is used to work out the price that we charge you.

To calculate volume weight, please enter your values in the highlighted box given below

International Volumetric Weights Formula:

(Length x Width x Height in Centimeters) / 6000 = Volumetric Weight in Kilograms

OR

(Length x Width x Height in Inches) / 366 = Volumetric Weight in Kilograms
