About Dimensional Weight
What is Dimensional Weight?
Dimensional weight is a pricing technique used by shipping carriers that takes into account package density. It ensures that large but lightweight packages are priced according to the space they occupy in cargo holds.
How It's Calculated
The formula varies by carrier but generally involves multiplying length × width × height and dividing by a dimensional factor. The greater of actual weight or dimensional weight is used for pricing.
