Volumetric/dimensional weight surcharges
Exceeding the volumetric or dimensional weight will result in a surcharge from your carrier. Carriers choose to charge for the greater value of the two weights. To learn how to calculate your volumetric weight or read our article on How to calculate parcel volumetric/dimensional weight. You can also make use of our volumetric weight calculator.
