Optional. Leave 0 to skip cost.

How it works

  • Volumetric weight per carton = length x width x height (cm) divided by the carrier's divisor.
  • Chargeable weight is the greater of actual and volumetric weight.
  • Express couriers commonly use a divisor of 5,000, while air cargo commonly follows the IATA standard of 6,000 cm3 per kg. Carriers set their own rules.
  • Sea freight LCL is usually billed per cubic meter, with a minimum of one metric ton per cubic meter as the weight-or-measure comparison.
  • Cost per unit = total freight cost divided by units. Use it as the freight input in the landed cost calculator.
