How long does it take for my freight shipment to be delivered?

Some freights get delivered in a day while some might take several days. Because of distance and other variables that might be associated with your freight moves, the best way to get a delivery date is from the shipping company. Many companies have standard delivery timelines for different shipping options and conditions. The company will be able to tell you when to expect your items to be delivered.

How do you calculate the chargeable weight for freight shipping?

We consider the gross weight or volumetric weight of the shipment to determine the chargeable weight. The combined weight of your shipment, its packaging, and pallets while volumetric weight is the volume of the shipment (l x b x h) divided by the density ratio of the shipment mode. Whichever value is higher between gross weight and volumetric weight is used to estimate the chargeable weight.
