Freight density calculator

Pounds per cubic foot, the basis of LTL class.

lb

Volume = 55.6 cubic feet

Density = 9.0 lb per cubic foot

What this calculates

Freight density is the weight of a shipment divided by its cubic volume, expressed in pounds per cubic foot, and it determines the freight class for most LTL commodities.

Density (lb/ft³) = weight (lb) ÷ (L × W × H in inches ÷ 1,728)
