Cuft calculation
The cuft is calculated out after the length, width and height of containers are measured and the formula below are applied.

Cuft or weight is utilized for the calculation of shipping fees and revenue tons for general LCL (not FCL) air freight. Quotations are based on one cuft or CBM as the basic unit. Cuft must be calculated prior to determination of shipping fees.
Cuft can be calculated with the following formula after measurement of L/W/H of shipping crates/boxes.
A. L x W x H (cm) x 0.0000353 = _______ Cuft (Cubic Feet)
B. _______ Cuft ÷ 35.315 = _______ CBM (Cubic Meter)
Notes：
What is cuft and CBM？ Cuft is a unit of volume. Cuft or weight is usually utilized to calculate payable fees for air or ocean freight. 1 cuft equals 1 cubic foot, whereas 1 CBM represents 1 Cubic Meter (m3). Conversion of cuft into CBM and vice versa: 1 cuft = 0.028 CBM, 1 CBM = 35.315 cuft
Generally speaking, a 20-foot container has a storage capacity of around 26-28 CBM (918~988 cuft), while a 40-foot container has a storage capacity of around 56~58 CBM (1977~2048 cuft).
How to calculate CBM？ CBM can be obtained by multiplying the product of length, width, and height of crates/boxes by the total number of crates/boxes.
For instance, if you have five crates/boxes with a length, width, and height of 100 cm, cuft/CBM can be calculated as follows: 100 (cm) X 100 (cm) X 100 (cm) X 5 X 0.0000353 = 176.5 cuft (or 5 CBM)
Cuft calculation for air freight
Air freight fees are determined by the space taken up by the consigned cargo on the cargo plane rather than actual weight. This calculated standard is known as volume or dimensional weight.
The following formula is utilized for the calculation of international volume weight: L x W x H (cm) / 6000 = Volume Weight (kg)
Units of measurement：
Length
Width
Height
Volume Weight
0 (kg)
Notes：
Cargo weight calculation：Actual weight or volume weight, whichever is higher.
Volume weight calculation for express delivery
The following formula is utilized for the calculation of volume weight for international express delivery ：L×W×H(cm)／5000 = Volume Weight (kg)
Units of measurement：
Length
Width
Height
Volume Weight
0 (kg)
- The divisors for international and domestic express delivery are 5000 and 6000, respectively.
- Cargo weight calculation: Actual weight or volume weight, whichever is higher.
- Determination of actual weight: Package weights is determined through weighing on a scale. If numerous crates/boxes with the same dimensions are consigned, the aggregate billable weight of all packages must be determined. If the crates/boxes have different dimensions, they must be weighed individually. The actual weight or volume weight of each crate/box type, whichever is higher, must be utilized for the calculation of aggregate weight. Fractions of a kilogram are unconditionally rounded up to the next integer. Ex: 3.3 kg is counted as 4kg and 28.8kg is counted as 29 kg for calculations.
- If crates/boxes with specified dimensions are utilized and it is determined through measurement that height of a crate/box with specified dimensions of 10×6×6 is 6.25, this value is unconditionally rounded up to 7 and the actual dimensions are updated to 10×6×7. If items are protruding out of the crate/box, the most protruding part is utilized for calculations.
