Shipping, freight and pallet calculations

Shipping calculators help estimate package volume, dimensional weight, freight density and simple pallet capacity. They are intended to make shipment planning easier before final carrier rules, packaging constraints and commercial rates are applied.

Choosing the right calculator

Use the CBM Calculator for cubic-meter volume, Dimensional Weight Calculator for volumetric billing weight, Freight Class Calculator for a density-based preliminary estimate, and Pallet Calculator for a simple boxes-per-layer layout.

  • Measure the outside dimensions of the packed shipment.
  • Use the carrier's current divisor, rounding and classification rules for final quotes.
  • Check weight, height, handling and packaging constraints separately from pure volume calculations.
