To ensure accurate shipping costs and avoid additional fees, please use precise instruments to measure your parcel's weight and dimensions.

You will need:

A Scale: Use either a domestic or industrial scale for accurate weight measurement.
A Measuring Tool: This can be a ruler, metre stick, measuring tape, or flexometer to determine the dimensions of your parcel.

Important Definitions:

Length: The longest side of the parcel.
Width: The median (middle-length) side.
Height: The shortest side.

OrangePAK uses a volumetric weight coefficient of 4000. The chargeable weight is the greater of the actual weight or the volumetric weight (L × W × H ÷ 4000). Accurate measurements help prevent discrepancies and ensure a smooth shipping process. Always verify these values before creating your shipping label.
