ACBuy Shipping Guide: How to Estimate Parcel Weight Accurately
Avoid unexpected costs by learning to predict your parcel's weight and size before
Final shipping fees are calculated based on the parcel's actual dimensional weight or physical weight, whichever is greater. An underestimation at checkout leads to a balance due later. By estimating correctly upfront, you: Gather the packaged item's length (L), width (W), and height (H) in centimeters. Use a measuring tape and round up to the nearest cm. Pro Tip:
Find the item's net weight (without packaging). Then, add a reasonable allowance for packing materials like boxes, filler, and tape. Navigate to the ACBuy shipping cost calculator tool in your account panel. The estimator will instantly provide a projected shipping quote. This is the most accurate cost you can get before officially submitting your parcel for consolidation and shipping.Why Accurate Estimation Matters
