Calculate less-than-container-load (LCL) sea freight cost based on CBM.
Billable Volume
3.50 m³
Freight Cost
157.50
Total Cost
242.50
How It's Calculated
Billable CBM = whichever is greater: actual CBM or the minimum chargeable CBM. Freight cost = billable CBM × rate. Total cost = freight + handling + documentation fee.
Real Example
Example: 3.5 m³ cargo, 1 m³ minimum, rate 45 per CBM → billable 3.5 m³, freight 157.5, + handling 50 + documentation 35 = total 242.5.
Notes & Limitations
LCL freight rates vary widely by trade lane, season, and consolidator — this is only an estimate based on the rates you enter.
