Ocean Freight W/M Reference

Compare weight versus measure units for selected LCL volume scenarios at your gross weight and disclosed tariff ratio. Minimums and rounding stay separate.

How to use this data

Measure units=V/volumePerRT; weight units=M/weightPerRT; unrounded W/M units=max(the two). Show which side controls, retaining the entered ratio.

    CHECK THE METHOD

    Worked example

    At 0.5 m³ and 500 kg with 1 m³/1000 kg, both sides equal 0.5 RT before minimums and rounding.

    Common lookup questions

    What should I confirm before using this lookup?

    Revenue ton is a billing unit. Tariff minimums, increments, surcharges and route terms are not determined here; FCL is a separate booking basis.

    TRACEABLE DATA

    Sources, scope & verification

    Dataset v1.3.0
    Last verified:

    Seven generated LCL comparisons. The named source convention is 1 m³ or 1000 kg; editable ratios are user scenarios.

    Values are curated product facts or generated scenarios. Paid standards, complete catalogs and source diagrams are not reproduced. A verification date applies to this documented subset.
