How are freight prices calculated?
Dimensional WeightThe freight carriers use something called dimensional weight. The freight carriers have switched to using this method for packages that are large, but not necessarily heavy. The dimensional weight is calculated by taking the dimensions and dividing the volume by 194 (L x W x H = VOL / 194) General CalculationHere is how our freight is calculated: actual freight + insurance + $1.50 handling and materials + hazmat charges (if applicable)
