That means 1 CBM counts as about 167 kg.<br \/>\u2022 Express (DHL, UPS, FedEx): L \u00d7 W \u00d7 H (cm) \u00f7 5,000, so 1 CBM counts as 200 kg.<br \/>\u2022 Sea LCL: 1 CBM counts as 1,000 kg, and you pay for CBM or tonnes, whichever is higher.<br \/>\u2022 Light, bulky goods are billed on size. Smaller cartons mean lower freight.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>What Is Chargeable Weight?<\/h2>\n<p>Planes and courier vans fill up by space as well as by weight. A carton of foam takes the same room as a carton of steel parts, so carriers charge for the space too. They compare two figures for every shipment:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Actual weight<\/strong> (gross weight): what the cartons weigh on a scale, packaging included.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Volumetric weight<\/strong>: a weight worked out from the carton size.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The higher of the two is the <strong>chargeable weight<\/strong>, and that is the weight on your invoice.<\/p>\n<p>You will see volumetric weight called by other names: <strong>dimensional weight<\/strong>, <strong>dim weight<\/strong>, volume weight or, in Australia, <strong>cubic weight<\/strong>.

Light, bulky goods by air<\/h3>\n<p>10 cartons of cushions, each 60 \u00d7 50 \u00d7 50 cm and 8 kg.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Actual weight: 10 \u00d7 8 kg = <strong>80 kg<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Volumetric weight: 60 \u00d7 50 \u00d7 50 \u00f7 6,000 = 25 kg per carton, \u00d7 10 = <strong>250 kg<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Chargeable weight: <strong>250 kg<\/strong>. You pay for more than three times the real weight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By express, the same cartons count as 60 \u00d7 50 \u00d7 50 \u00f7 5,000 = 30 kg each, so <strong>300 kg<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Small, heavy goods by air<\/h3>\n<p>5 cartons of metal parts, each 40 \u00d7 30 \u00d7 30 cm and 20 kg.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Actual weight: 5 \u00d7 20 kg = <strong>100 kg<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Volumetric weight: 40 \u00d7 30 \u00d7 30 \u00f7 6,000 = 6 kg per carton, \u00d7 5 = <strong>30 kg<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Chargeable weight: <strong>100 kg<\/strong>. Heavy goods are billed on actual weight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>3. Sea freight LCL<\/h3>\n<p>A shipment of 3.2 CBM that weighs 1,800 kg.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Volume: <strong>3.2 CBM<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Weight: 1,800 kg = <strong>1.8 tonnes<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>You pay for <strong>3.2<\/strong> freight units (the higher figure), at the price per CBM.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Whole Shipment or Each Carton?<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Air freight:<\/strong> airlines usually compare the total actual weight with the total volumetric weight of the whole shipment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Express:<\/strong> couriers check each package, so each carton is charged at its own actual or volumetric weight, whichever is higher.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Chargeable weight is usually rounded up to the next 0.5 kg.<\/p>\n<h2>Air Freight or Express: Which Costs Less?<\/h2>\n<p>Because express divides by 5,000 instead of 6,000, the same carton counts as 20% heavier by express than by air. Express also has higher rates per kg. As a rough guide:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Under about 100 kg chargeable:<\/strong> express is usually simpler, and often cheaper door to door.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Above about 100 kg:<\/strong> air freight usually costs less per kg.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Large, light shipments:<\/strong> sea freight, where 1 CBM counts as 1,000 kg, is far cheaper if you have time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Compare the options in our guide to <a href=\"\/air-freight-vs-sea-freight\/\">air freight vs sea freight<\/a>, or see our <a href=\"\/air-freight\/\">air freight<\/a> and <a href=\"\/sea-freight\/\">sea freight<\/a> services.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Lower Your Chargeable Weight<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use smaller cartons.<\/strong> Ask your supplier to pack in cartons that fit the product, not standard oversized boxes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cut empty space.<\/strong> Less filler and tighter packing reduce volume straight away.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flat-pack where possible.<\/strong> Furniture, stands and displays cost far less to ship disassembled.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Combine light and heavy goods.<\/strong> On air freight, heavy items can use the &#8220;free&#8221; weight of bulky items in the same shipment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check the packing list.<\/strong> Supplier carton sizes are often estimates. Wrong sizes lead to surprise charges.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Move bulky goods to sea.<\/strong> If your goods are light and not urgent, sea freight is usually the cheapest option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We can repack and consolidate goods from several suppliers in our warehouse.

Try your own cartons in the <a href=\"\/freight-calculator\/\">freight cost calculator<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Pallets and Chargeable Weight<\/h2>\n<p>A pallet adds its own size to the shipment. A standard pallet of 120 \u00d7 100 cm loaded to 150 cm high is 1.8 CBM, so by air it is charged as at least 300 kg, even if the cartons only weigh 200 kg. Palletise when it protects the goods or the destination requires it, but for light air cargo, loose cartons are often cheaper.<\/p>\n<h2>Measuring Checklist<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Measure the packed carton, not the product, and include any bulges or handles.<\/li>\n<li>Round up to the next full centimetre: airlines and couriers measure that way too.<\/li>\n<li>Weigh every different carton size, not just one sample.<\/li>\n<li>Check the supplier&#8217;s packing list against a few cartons before booking.<\/li>\n<li>Ask for re-measured figures from the forwarder&#8217;s warehouse before you pay.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How JIEYI Works Out Your Chargeable Weight<\/h2>\n<p>When your goods arrive at our warehouse in Guangdong, <strong>we measure and weigh every carton<\/strong>. Your freight is based on these measured figures, not the supplier&#8217;s estimate, and we send you the numbers before the goods ship. If the chargeable weight is much higher than expected, we tell you and suggest options, such as repacking or switching to sea freight.<\/p>\n<p>Use the calculator above for an estimate, then <a href=\"\/contact\/#shipping-inquiry\">send us your carton sizes and weights<\/a> for a quote.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n<h3>How many kg is 1 CBM in air freight?<\/h3>\n<p>About 167 kg, because 1,000,000 cm\u00b3 \u00f7 6,000 = 166.7 kg. For express it is 200 kg, and for sea LCL 1,000 kg.<\/p>\n<h3>Is chargeable weight the same as volumetric weight?<\/h3>\n<p>No. Volumetric weight is calculated from the carton size. Chargeable weight is whichever is higher: the volumetric weight or the actual weight.<\/p>\n<h3>Why is my invoice weight different from my own calculation?<\/h3>\n<p>Usually because the cartons measured larger or heavier than the sizes on the packing list, or because of rounding. We send you our measured figures before shipping.<\/p>\n<h3>How is chargeable weight calculated for pallets?<\/h3>\n<p>The same way: measure the full pallet, including the pallet base and any overhang, then apply the formula to the outside dimensions.<\/p>\n<h3>Does volumetric weight apply to sea freight?<\/h3>\n<p>Sea freight uses a similar rule. LCL is charged on CBM or tonnes, whichever is higher, with 1 CBM counted as 1,000 kg. Full containers are charged per container.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Checked on 2 November 2026.
