⚖️ Understanding DIM (Dimensional Weight) Formula

Shipping costs are calculated based on the higher of actual weight or volumetric (DIM) weight.

📐 DIM Weight Formula:

​

📦 Example:

• Package size: 50 × 40 × 30 cm
• DIM weight = (50×40×30) / 5000 = 12 kg

👉 If actual weight = 8 kg → You will be charged for 12 kg

---

💡 Why This Matters

• Large but lightweight packages may cost more
• Efficient packaging helps reduce shipping fees

---

📏 Actual vs Volumetric Weight

👉 Couriers always charge the higher value
