Volumetric Weight Calculation Formula

$$\text{Volumetric Weight (kg)} = \frac{\text{Length (cm)} \times \text{Width (cm)} \times \text{Height (cm)}}{5000}$$

This formula is commonly used by couriers (e.g., DHL, FedEx) for international shipping. The divisor (5000) may vary depending on carrier and unit system (e.g., 139 for inches/lbs).

Volumetric weight reflects the density of a package — the amount of space it occupies relative to its actual weight. This is crucial in air freight and courier pricing, where bulky items may cost more despite being lightweight. Enter the dimensions of your package and get the volumetric weight instantly. Adjust divisor based on the carrier’s policy (e.g., 5000 for cm/kg or 6000 for domestic rates). Useful for logistics companies, e-commerce, and international shipping.
