How is air freight calculated? Prices (air freight rates) are always quoted per kg/6 dm3. This can also be called the volume ratio 1 : 6 or 1 m3 = 167 kg.

Calculating the Volumetric Weight of Your Shipment · Air Freight: a 1:6 density ratio · Ocean Freight: a 1:1 density ratio · Rail Freight: a 1:3 density ratio.

The parameter to be used to calculate the rates is the weight / volume ratio, different for each type of transport (air, sea, land).

Airfreight and Road transport The volume ratio is 1:6 or 1 metric ton 1000:6 = 166.66 kilo. This means that 167 kilo should not exceed the space of 1 cubic ...

AIR FREIGHT (volume ratio 1:6). SEA FREIGHT (volume ratio 1:1). ROAD FREIGHT (volume ratio 1:3). Shipment totals. transport. air, sea, road. qty 0.

Here's the formula to calculate gross weight: Product Weight + Packaging/Pallet Weight = Gross Weight.

The standard dim factors are suitable for most ocean (1:000 vol ratio), EU trucking (1:3000), express freight/courier (1:500) and air freight (1:600) shipments.

Simply take the dimensions and weight of your goods to be shipped and calculate your air freight rate in 3 easy steps.
