D. DETERMINE THE BILLABLE WEIGHT OF YOUR PARCEL
- As from above, we learnt that the greater of the two above is the billable weight and should be used to calculate the rate.
- If actual weight is heavier, we used the actual weight to calculate the rate.
- If dimension weight is larger, we will use the dimension weight to calculte the rate.
- As an industry standard, we round each measurement to the next whole number.
Example:
1. Parcel is 0.2KG, it is rounded up to 1KG
2. Parcel is 0.7KG, it is rounded up to 1KG
3. Parcel is 1.4KG, it is rounded up to 2KG
4. Parcel is 1.9KG, it is rounded up to 2KG
5. Parcel is 9.1KG, it is rounded up to 10KG
and so on..
