DHL Express adheres to today’s advanced aircraft design, which calculates the volumetric (dimensional) weight of each shipment for the most efficient use of cargo space. The cost of a shipment can be affected by the amount of space that it occupies on an aircraft, rather than the actual weight. DHL uses a formula to calculate volumetric weight for every piece in a shipment: Centimeters/Kilograms: Length x Width x Height/5000 per Piece Inches/Pounds: Length x Width x Height/139 per Piece
