When calculating cost of goods to be transported, volume is as important as the weight.

Below formula is used for sea cargo volume calculation;

{Width (cm) x Length (cm) x Height (cm)} / 1.000.000

*For partial sea cargoes, if the weight of the goods is bigger than the volume, the weight will be considered.
