The shipping route, freight mode, and your choice between FTL and LTL shipping can impact the delivery day or time. FTL shipping leads to fewer transit times whereas LTL shipping may experience delay because the carriers are attending to multiple customers on the same trip.
Gross weight or volumetric weight is used to calculate the chargeable weight. Freight carriers use any one of the two that has the higher value. The weight of the shipment, packaging, and pallets all make the gross weight while volumetric weight is calculated by dividing the volume of the shipment (l x b x h) by the density ratio of the shipment mode.
