Density Calculator

Freight Density Calculator

If the shipment is palletized, use the dimensions of the pallet, the combined height of the carton + the pallet, and the total weight of the shipment.

Step 1: Use our PCF Calculator to determine the Pounds per Cubic Foot No other site offers this extensive list.

Step 2: Use Table below to determine what class corresponds with the Pound per cubic foot range No other site offers this extensive list.

** Not all commodities are density based, so below is only a guideline. Contact us for the correct freight class and NMFC.

Measure the height, width and depth of the shipment in inches. Measure to the farthest points, including skids or other packaging.

Length (inches): Width (inches): Height (inches): Weight (Pounds): Get Freight Density & Class
