Volumetric Weight Guide

Understanding Volumetric Weight

DHL and FedEx charge based on whichever is greater: actual weight or volumetric (dimensional) weight.

① Actual Weight
Physical scale measurement
BOX
1.5
kg
② Volumetric Weight
Calculated from box dimensions
40 cm 30 cm 20 cm
40 × 30 × 20 ÷ 5,000 = 4.8 kg
Billing Rule: Heavier Value Wins
The carrier compares actual 1.5 kg vs volumetric 4.8 kg and bills for the larger value — 4.8 kg.
Formula
(L × W × H) ÷ 5,000 = Vol.Weight (kg)
L, W, H in centimeters. Result in kilograms.
JapanCart Tip: We remove unnecessary outer boxes (e.g., Amazon boxes) and repack using the smallest suitable box, minimizing volumetric weight and reducing your shipping cost.
