How package dimensions affect delivery cost

Delivery costs depend as much on the size of a package as its weight.

So, if your package is light, but its dimensions are very large, it will require more space on the delivery vehicle or plane.

Therefore, carriers base their delivery charges for such items on their dimensional weight, which is calculated based on the overall volume of the package.
