Dimensional weight (also called dimensional, spatial or volumetric) is not the actual weight of a shipment, but a value calculated based on its dimensions. For large and lightweight shipments, the overall weight is higher than the actual weight of the package. Dimensional weight formula is as follows: length cm x width cm x height cm / 5000 = the gabar weight of the package measured in kilograms. For example, the volumetric weight calculator of a package with dimensions of 38 cm/64 cm/41 cm will be 20 kg, assuming that the conversion ratio is 1:5000.
