Package density calculator

Density helps explain why a light, bulky parcel is more exposed to dimensional pricing than a compact parcel of the same scale weight.

Package density

See how much mass occupies each unit of space.

Calculate kg/m³ and lb/ft³ for the finished package, not the product alone.

Physical density is not a freight class and does not replace a carrier’s dimensional rule.

A diagnostic, not a carrier class

This result is physical package density. It does not determine an LTL freight class or contractual rate.

Use finished-package measurements

Calculate with the shipping carton, dunnage and packaging mass included. Product-only density answers a different question.
