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.
