Example values: Carton length 60 cm, Carton width 40 cm, Carton height 40 cm, Number of cartons 50 pcs. With these values the results are:
| Volume per carton | 0.0960 m³ |
|---|---|
| Total volume (CBM) | 4.800 m³ |
| Air cargo volumetric weight (1:6000) | 16.00 kg |
| Courier volumetric weight (1:5000) | 19.20 kg |
How to use: Carton Volume Calculator
- Enter your own values: Carton length, Carton width, Carton height, Number of cartons.
- Results are calculated as you type: Volume per carton, Total volume (CBM), Air cargo volumetric weight (1:6000), Courier volumetric weight (1:5000).
- Check every step of the calculation in the formulas below.
How is it calculated?
- Volume per carton = [Carton length] × [Carton width] × [Carton height] ÷ 1,000,000
- Total volume (CBM) = [Volume per carton] × [Number of cartons]
- Air cargo volumetric weight (1:6000) = [Carton length] × [Carton width] × [Carton height] ÷ 6,000
- Courier volumetric weight (1:5000) = [Carton length] × [Carton width] × [Carton height] ÷ 5,000
