MyCNBox offers multiple shipping lines tailored to different needs, with package weight being one of the most significant factors in determining the optimal choice. This guide will help you navigate between economy, express, and consolidation lines based on your parcel's weight and delivery urgency.
Understanding Weight Categories
Lightweight (0-2 kg)
Small items, documents, samples, and minor purchases
Medium Weight (2-10 kg)
Multiple items, small electronics, clothing bundles, personal packages
Heavy Weight (10+ kg)
Large purchases, multiple product bundles, business inventory
Route Selection Guide
Under 2kg + Urgent Delivery
Recommendation:
For lightweight urgent packages, express shipping provides the best value as the cost difference from economy is minimal, but delivery time is significantly faster.
2-5kg + Flexible Timeline
Recommendation:
In this range, calculate both options. Economy wins for pure cost savings, while express may be worth the premium if you need items 1-2 weeks earlier.
5-10kg + Cost Priority
Recommendation:
Economy line becomes significantly more cost-effective in this weight range, with per-kilogram rates dropping substantially.
10kg+ or Multiple Packages
Recommendation:
For heavy shipments or multiple packages, consolidation offers the lowest per-kilogram rate, maximizing cost efficiency for large shipments.
