Under about 15 m³ is usually cheaper as LCL.

Based on typical usable volume: 20′ ≈ 28 m³, 40′ ≈ 58 m³, 40′HC ≈ 68 m³. Real loads depend on carton shape, stacking and weight limits.

How it is calculated

  • CBM per piece = length × width × height in meters.
  • Total CBM = CBM per piece × number of pieces, summed across lines.
  • 1 m³ = 35.315 cubic feet.
