Weigh the parcel to determine the chargeable weight in pounds (round up to the next higher number if at or above the 1/2 pound mark). Multiply the chargeable weight times the appropriate price per pound.

"Chargeable weight" is determined by regular pounds or volumetric pounds, which is greater. If your parcel is large and lightweight, the shipping cost may be determined by volumetric pounds. To determine the volumetric pounds of your parcel, use the following formula: Multiply the length of the parce times the height times the width (in inches). Multiply this figure times .0054 to obtain the volumetric pounds.

Lenght x Width x Height x .0054 = Volumetric Pounds
