The Dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height of a package, using the longest point on each side to get the cubic size.
Then, divide the cubic size of the package in inches by the dimensional divisor to calculate the dimensional weight.
Key data point you need to know to calculate dimensional weight:
- Length = the longest side running from left to right
- Width = the perpendicular side to the length usually running front to back
- Height = the side that runs perpendicular to the length and width usually running from bottom to top
- Dimensional Divisor = The number provided by the carrier to divide into the cubic size to determine the Dimensional Weight
