L" x W" x H" of the packages (in) 366

48"x 40" x 40" = 210kg (volumetric weight)366

Since the actual weight (272 kg) is higher than the volumetric weight (210 kg), the actual total weight of the packages (272 kg) represents the chargeable weight.

Since the volumetric weight (630 kg) is higher than the actual total weight of the packages (363 kg), 630 kg represents the chargeable weight.

Calculation of freight

Actual Vs Chargeable

Airfreight is calculated according to the gross weight (actual weight) or the volume of the shipment. In the case of volume, the largest rectangular dimensions apply. It is also referred to as volume ratio 1:6. The packages must be measured at the outermost points and the cm figures rounded to whole numbers.

The result is rounded to half or full kilograms. In the case of several packages, the results are first added and then rounded.

Volume-kilograms is calcluated as follows:

= volumetric weight (kg)

48"x 40"x 40" (in)

3 x 48"x 40" x 40" = 630kg (volumetric weight)366
