Third, the freight calculation method
1. Billing weight unit:
The express delivery industry generally takes 0.5KG(0.5 kg) as the billing weight unit.
2. First and second weight:
The first weight (or lifting weight) of express goods is 0.5KG, and each additional 0.5KG is a continuous weight.
In general, the cost of termination is higher than that of continuous termination.
3. Actual weight and volume:
Refers to the actual total weight of a batch of goods to be shipped, including packaging, which is called actual weight;
Due to the limitation of the carrying capacity of means of transport (aircraft, trains, ships, cars, etc.), when the goods to be transported are large in volume and light in actual weight. ) and the volume of goods that can be loaded, it is necessary to take the method of converting the volume of goods into weight as the weight for calculating freight, which is called volume weight or volume. An object whose bulk weight is greater than its actual weight is often called a light throwing object.
4. Billing weight:
According to the definition of actual weight and volume and the regulations of the International Air Freight Association, the freight weight charged in the process of cargo transportation is calculated according to the higher of the actual weight and volume weight of the whole batch of goods.
5. Packaging costs
Under normal circumstances, courier companies provide packaging materials such as cartons and bubbles for free, but many items, such as clothes, do not need very fine packaging. But for some valuable and fragile items, the courier company still has to charge a certain packaging fee. Packaging costs are generally not included in the discount.
6. General freight calculation formula:
A) When the actual weight of the delivered goods is greater than the volume, the freight is calculated as follows:
First freight+(weight (kg) × 2- 1 )× subsequent freight.
For example, if 7KG of goods are calculated according to the first weight of 20 yuan and the second weight of 9 yuan, the total freight is:
20+(7×2- 1)*9= 137 (yuan)
B) When the actual weight of the goods to be shipped is light and the volume is large, the freight shall be charged according to the volume standard first, and then according to the above.
Formula for calculating total freight. The formula for calculating the volume is as follows:
Conventional items: length (cm)× width (cm)× height (cm)÷6000= weight (KG)
Irregular articles: longest (cm)× widest (cm)× highest (cm) ÷6000= weight (KG)
C) International express mail sometimes charges a fuel surcharge.
For example, the fuel surcharge at this time is 9%, and the result of formula (a) needs to be added: freight ×9%.
Fuel surcharge meter is usually discounted with freight.
7. Total cost:
Total cost = (freight+fuel surcharge) × discount+packaging cost+other uncertain costs.
