What is the formula for volumetric weight?

What is the formula for volumetric weight?

The formula for calculating volumetric weight is length x width x height (cm) / 5000.

How do you calculate weight in dimensions?

To calculate the dimensional weight of a package you multiply the length by width by height and divide it by the dimensional weight divisor. So for example, if you have a box that’s 36 cm x 25 cm x 16 cm and your carrier uses a dimensional weight divisor of 5000, your DIM weight is 3 kg.

How do you calculate volumetric volume?

How to Calculate Volumetric Weight

1. Find the longest point of each side and measure width, height and length. …
2. Round each measurement to the nearest whole number.
3. Multiply your dimensions (the rounded width, height, length) to get your cubic size.

How do you calculate the volume weight of the shipment if the dimensions are in inches and kilograms?

Multiply the length by the width by the height to obtain the cubic inches (cm). To obtain the dimensional weight in kilograms, divide the cubic inch result by 366. To obtain the dimensional weight in pounds, divide the cubic inch result by 166.

What is volumetric weight vs actual weight?

Difference between volumetric weight & actual weight? Actual weight is the true weight of the package as it says on the weighing scale. However, volumetric weight defines how much space the package occupies according to its dimensions, which is then converted to its equivalent weight.

How do you convert kg to volumetric weight?

Divide the cubic size* of the package by 5,000 (in cm) / 305 (in inch) to determine the volumetric weight in kilograms. Increase fractions of a weight to the next full kilogram.
