Measurements
How to enter boxes, pallets, and weights.
Different size or weight?Click Add box group or Add pallet group. Do not average different freight together.
Only know total weight?Open Only have total order weight and enter the order total. Dimensions still calculate cube and linear feet.
Length, width, heightMeasure the packaged freight. Use the longest side as length and floor-to-top as height.
Tip: Use packaged dimensions, not product-only dimensions. Labels, packing slips, and manufacturer specs are usually better than visual estimates.
