Understanding Weight Calculation
International shipping costs are determined by either the actual weightdimensional (volumetric) weight
Our consolidation process actively reduces dimensional weight by using a single, right-sized box and eliminating unnecessary filler materials from the original shipments.
How to Optimize Your Consolidated Package
Maximize your savings by following these proactive tips when shopping and consolidating:
Plan Your Purchases
Try to coordinate orders so items arrive at our warehouse around the same time. This allows for optimal consolidation in one go instead of multiple, smaller shipments.
Request Minimal Packaging
When ordering from retailers, add a note requesting simple, compact packaging. This reduces the initial volume our team needs to handle.
Consider Item Density
Heavy, small items (like books or electronics) consolidate very cost-effectively. For bulky, lightweight items, the savings might be less dramatic, but still present.
