The volumetric weight of a shipment is a measure commonly used in the transport and logistics sector that takes into account the size of the packages, expresses the density of the goods and serves to compare the volume with the actual weight of a shipment.

To calculate the cost of a shipment, the volumetric weight is compared to the actual weight of the cargo and the heaviest of the two is taken into consideration. In general, the cost of an expedition will be determined by:

• The volumetric weight in those shipments whose goods are voluminous and light.
• The actual weight when the goods are heavy and not very large.

How do I calculate volumetric weight?

As a general rule, the volumetric weight of the merchandise is calculated with the following formula (valid for air, sea, rail and parcel transport. In the case of land transport, it is only applicable when the merchandise is stackable/stackable):

VOLUMETRIC WEIGHT= VOLUME (m3) x CONVERSION FACTOR (m3/kg)

or in other words

LENGTH x WIDTH x HEIGHT x CONVERSION FACTOR (m3/kg)

Dependiendo del tipo de mercancía que se desee transportar, requiere un tipo de embalaje específico para que la mercancía no sufra daños en el mismo trayecto. Esto es responsabilidad del remitente, que se hará cargo de que la mercancía enviada llegue a su destino en un correcto estado.

En XGL Logistics generamos nuestras propias etiquetas de transporte en las cuales mediante un código de barras podemos rastrear el pedido para poder mostrar el estado del envío en tiempo real.

Depending on the type of merchandise to be transported, it requires a specific type of packaging so that the merchandise does not suffer damage on its journey. This responsibility lies with the sender, who will ensure that the shipped merchandise reaches its destination in a correct state.

At XGL Logistics we generate our own transport labels in which, through a barcode, we can track the shipment in order to show a real time status.

Freight forwarders use their trusted contacts with carriers, partners or collaborators, from specialists in air transport and trucking companies to transoceanic lines, to negotiate the best possible price and carry the goods through established commercial routes, evaluating different offers and choosing the best route that optimizes speed, costs and reliability, considering all the variables necessary for the analysis of each case.
