Dim weight
or dimensional weight is used because the space taken by a piece could be
more expensive than the actual weight of the piece.
You should know the dimweight and compare it with the
actual weight. The cost of your shipment
should be calculated using the larger of them.
Domestic (U.S.A.) and
international dimensional weight is calculated in different ways. Use the
calculator bellow to know the dimweight of your shipment.

International shipments:
L x W x H / 166 = Dimweight
(cubic inches) Example: 30" x
24" x 22" = 15,840 / 166 = 96 lb
(round to the nearest value) |

Domestic shipments (U.S.A.):
L x W x H / 194 = Dimweight (cubic inches) Example: 30" x 24" x 22" = 15,840 / 194 = 82
lbs
(round to the nearest value)
