How to charge LCL freight for transporting goods?

In LCL, the LCL freight charged is related to the actual weight and volume weight. Of the two, we need to choose the larger one to calculate the LCL freight.

Example: You want to ship goods from Nanning, Guangxi, China to Nuuk, Greenland. The weight of the goods is 750KG and the volume is 1.1 cubic meters (m³). The LCL freight for one cubic meter of goods is 891.24 Danish kroner (DKK). So how much is the LCL freight for the goods?

By converting the volume ratio, the volume of the goods: 1.1m³ X 1000kg=1100KG

1100KG＞750KG, the volume of the goods is greater than the weight of the goods

So choose the volume of the goods to calculate the LCL freight

The LCL freight is: 891.24X 1.1m³=980.36 Danish kroner (DKK)

How is the freight for international express delivery charged?

The express delivery fee charged by the weight of the goods is calculated based on the larger value of the actual weight and the volume weight. The volume weight is calculated as: length x width x height CM/5000 = KG.

Example: China transports a 55KG cargo with a length of 65cm, a width of 70cm, and a height of 55cm to Greenland via Hong Kong DHL Express. The express depvery fee per kilogram of the cargo is 346.9 Danish kroner (DKK), so how much is the total express depvery fee?

Volume weight: (65cm X 70cm X 55cm) ➗ 5000 = 50.05KG

The volume weight of the cargo is 50.05KG < the actual weight of 55KG

The express depvery fee is calculated based on the actual weight of the cargo: 55 X 346.9 = 19079.5 Danish kroner (DKK)
