SF Express Weight Calculation
For each SF Express service, the weight is determined by the greater of the volumetric weight and the actual weight.
Volumetric Weight = Length x Width x Height ÷ 5000
Actual Weight = Weight after packaging
Calculation Example
Volumetric Weight = 20 x 20 x 40 ÷ 5000 = 3.2kg
Actual Weight = 1kg
Since the volumetric weight > actual weight, the weight is 3.2kg.
