VOLUME SHIPPING img

Volumetric Weight

If material is light in weight but occupying larger space due to dimension; it needs to be charged as per volumetric weight calculations shown below:

img
1. Measure the dimensions:

Measure the length, width, and height of your package in centimeters (cm).

2. Calculate the volume:

Multiply the length, width, and height together.

3. Divide by:

for Surface service's Divide the volume by 4500 and Air service's Divide the volume by 5000

4. Round up:

Round the result up to the nearest whole number. This number represents the volumetric weight in kilograms (kg).

4. Round up:

Round the result up to the nearest whole number. This number represents the volumetric weight in kilograms (kg).

Example

• If your package dimensions are 20 cm x 20 cm x 30 cm:

o Volume = 20 cm x 20 cm x 30 cm = 12,000 cm³

o Volumetric Weight = 12,000 cm³ / 5000 = 2.4 kg

o Rounded up, the volumetric weight is 3 kg.

Parcels having length more than 100 cm from any side should not be booked on Air mode.

More cost-effective and reduced risk of damages

Due to the enormous complexity of LTL freight networks, even the most efficient carriers inevitably end up with partially empty trucks on the road. When you ship volume LTL, your freight is transported by filling those gaps in standard LTL shipments.VLTL freight typically ranges from 6 to 24 pallets, filling 12 to 32 linear feet in a trailer and/or weighing at least 5,000 pounds. However, every carrier sets its exact dimensions for volume LTL shipments. Volume LTL shipping is an excellent choice for shippers looking to save money on bigger, low-liability cargo with flexible delivery windows. VLTL is also a good alternative when freight capacity in the TL and LTL markets is tight, as it is currently.
