Can I estimate my freight dimensions and weight?

Modified on Tue, 14 Dec, 2021 at 2:19 AM

No, freight dimensions and freight weight should never be estimated. It’s critical to measure dimensions to the nearest inch, especially for LTL shipping, as these carriers rely on exact dimensions to determine how much freight can fit on one truck. Incorrect or estimated measurements could result in a costly carrier adjustment or other extra fees. The same goes for weight since carriers use the weight to determine how much freight can fit onto an individual truck.
