Volume Weight
There are volume weight differences measured by lovetoy and forwarder
Lovetoy
1. Measure the length, width, height of each carton.
2. Calculate the volume of each carton.
3. Sum the volume of each carton to get the total volume.
2. Calculate the volume of each carton.
3. Sum the volume of each carton to get the total volume.
Forwarder
1. Pile all cartons together.
2. Measure the max length, max-width, max-height.
3. Total volume = max length * max-width * max height.
* Forwarder's total volume might be bigger than LOVETOY's total volume.
* According to our experience, 10% difference will be considered reasonable.

Volumetric Weight
A less dense item generally occupies more volume of space, in comparison to its actual weight. The volumetric or dimensional weight is calculated and compared with the actual weight of the shipment to ascertain which is greater; the higher weight is used to calculate the shipment cost.
Volumetric Weight = length * width * height / 5,000
