RizzitGo: Transparently Recording Parcel Weights and Packaging Adjustments
In the world of logistics and freight shipping, accuracy is paramount. Discrepancies in parcel weight or final billable dimensions can lead to unexpected costs and disputes. This is where RizzitGo's
Why Transparent Records Matter
Carriers often perform their own audits and adjustments. Without your own clear records, you are left vulnerable to:
- Disputed Charges:
- Lack of Evidence:
- Operational Fog:
- Lack of Evidence:
Transparent recording converts this potential vulnerability into verifiable data, protecting your bottom line.
The RizzitGo Method: A Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Pre-Packaging "Tare" Weigh
Before placing any items in the box, record the weight of your empty packaging materials (the tare). Use a calibrated digital scale. Note this in your RizzitGo shipment log or digital system.
Step 2: Post-Packaging Gross Weigh
Once the parcel is securely packaged, weigh it again. This is your gross weight. The net weight of the contents is automatically verified (Gross Weight - Tare Weight = Net Content Weight).
Step 3: Document Packaging Adjustments
Did you need to switch from a small box to a larger one? Add more void fill? Record every change.
Step 4: Final Measurement & Digital Capture
Measure the final sealed parcel's dimensions (Length x Width x Height) in inches or centimeters. Capture all data—tare weight, gross weight, and final dimensions—in your RizzitGo dashboard or a shared digital log attached to the shipment ID.
Step 5: Pre-Shipment Verification
Compare your recorded data against the carrier's label or rate quote. Any immediate discrepancy can be caught and corrected before
