In this episode, I talk about what volumetric weight is and how to get it.

To calculate the volumetric weight of the package, you multiply lenght, width, and height in cm and divide it by 5000 or 6000. For domestic shipments, 6000 is more commonly used and 5000, if it is an international shipment. It's important to ask the shipper what they divide it by.
