Information
Charging & Volumetric Weight
I.C.S.T. charges by either the gross or volumetric weight, whichever is the greater. The chargeable weight of the consignment is the aggregate total of each individual package rounded up to the nearest kg.
Where the volume of any single parcel exceeds 6000 cubic centimetres per kilo, volumetric weight will be applied.
How to Calculate Volumetric Weight
Volumetric Weight is calculated using the formula below:
Multiply each dimension, Length (cm) x Width (cm) x Height (cm) then divided by 6000, this will give the equivalent volumetric weight in kg.
For Example:
60 x 60 x 60 = 216000
216000 / 6000 = 36 kg
It is recomended that you calculate the volumetric weight for every parcel that you send then compare this to the actual weight. The greater weight of the two is used to calculate the price that we charge you
