Volumetric Weight Calculator
Carriers charge for the greater of two values: actual or volumetric weight. Enter your dimensions — the calculator shows the chargeable weight for each transport type.

How it works: the carrier divides the volume in cm³ by a divisor (5000/6000/4000) to get the volumetric weight in kg. You pay for the greater of the two — actual or volumetric. Light, bulky goods (toys, textiles, plastics) are almost always charged by volume.
