You pay for weight or space, whichever is more.
A light box that takes up a lot of room in the plane costs the courier as much as a heavy one. So express couriers bill on chargeable weight: L × B × H (cm) ÷ 5000, compared with what the scale says.
- StepA
Weigh it
Put the packed parcel on a scale. That is the actual weight.
- StepB
Measure the box
Length × breadth × height in centimetres, divided by 5000. That is the volumetric weight.
- StepC
Take the larger
Couriers charge for whichever is bigger. That is the chargeable weight, and it sets the fare.
Worked example
40 × 30 × 20 cm ÷ 5000 = 4.8 kg
Scale says 2 kg
Billed as 4.8 kg
