How to weigh and measure a large parcel
Are you finding it tricky to measure and weigh a large parcel? Follow our steps below to make the whole process that much easier:
- Start by weighing the item you want to send before wrapping it. If you find the item is too cumbersome to weigh on its own, weigh yourself holding the item and then minus your own weight to get your item’s weight
- Next, wrap or package your parcel appropriately and measure its dimensions using a tape measure. Then add the two shortest sides together, multiply these by 2, and add the longest side to get your parcel's overall size
- Finally, re-weigh your parcel in the same manner as before to get its final weight. If your parcel weighs 15kg or less and is 245cm overall or shorter, it’s ready to be sent
Remember, if you don’t weigh or measure your parcel correctly, you might be overcharged for your parcel’s price. Any overweight or over-sized parcels may not be deliverable by our large package Couriers, so it’s essential you get your measurements correct before sending.
Be sure to look at our size and weight article if you want more guidance in this area.
