Frequently asked questions

How is freight density calculated?

Divide total shipment weight by total shipment volume.

Why does freight density matter?

Carriers use density to understand how efficiently cargo uses trailer or container space.

Does density determine freight class?

It may influence US LTL classification, but commodity, handling, stowability and liability can also matter.

Should I use packed dimensions?

Yes. Use the external dimensions and gross weight of the packed handling unit.
