Accurate dimensions and weight are required to calculate your shipping rate. Rates are based on actual weight and dimensional weight — whichever is greater.

​
Using a preset

If you regularly ship the same package size, you can save a preset (also called a package macro) with your standard dimensions and weight. Select a saved preset to auto-fill all fields at once. You can also mark a preset as your default so it’s applied automatically each time you start a new shipment.

​
Manual entry

Enter your package dimensions and weight manually:
FieldAvailable units
Length, Width, HeightInches, centimeters, meters, or feet
WeightPounds, kilograms, ounces, or grams
Measure the outside of the package, including any padding or outer packaging.
For irregularly shaped packages, measure at the widest points in each direction. Carriers calculate dimensional weight using the largest dimensions.
