What is Volumetric Weight & How is it Calculated?
When the Volumetric Weight exceeds the actual weight, the volumetric weight applies to determine the shipment cost. All ABS-pack shipments are billed based on the weight of the shipment (actual or volumetric whichever is greater). When shipping any light weight and bulky shipments, please use the following formula to help you determine the volumetric weight in kilograms. The formula for calculating the volumetric weight is in accordance with the IATA standards and is applied throughout the industry.
