3. Actual weight and volumetric weight

Some airlines will generate the actual weight and volume weight of the package after submitting the package, and the airline will charge the freight according to the greater of the two.

What is the actual weight?

That is, the weight of the goods themselves, plus the package weight of the packaging materials used in the goods.

What is volume weight?

Volume weight is a method of calculating the weight of light goods in the transportation industry, that is, when the package volume is too large and the actual weight is small, the volume weight will be used.

How to calculate volumetric weight?

Volume weight (KG) = package length (CM) × width (CM) × height (CM)) /5000 (or 6000,7000,8000 according to third-party logistics provider standards).

Is my package calculated by volume weight?

If you want to know whether your package is calculated by volume weight before submitting the package, please check through the logistics quotation

(Warm reminder: logistics quotation calculation billing weight and cost for reference only, the actual package submitted to the warehouse packaging shall prevail)
