Volume and container calculator
Enter your carton sizes to see the total volume, the weight you'll be charged on, and whether a part-load or a full container suits you.
- Cartons

- Gross weight
- 0 kg
- Sea part-load charged on
- 0.00 W/M
- Air chargeable weight
- 0 kg
Part-loads are charged per cubic metre or per tonne, whichever is greater. Air freight uses 1 m³ = 167 kg. Usable container space is less than the full volume once cartons are stacked.

Commodity code finder
Every product you import needs a commodity code. It sets your duty rate. Describe the product and we'll search the official UK Trade Tariff for you.
