Does Package Size Affect Shipping Cost?
It can. Depending on the service and carrier, international shipments may be priced on:
What your shipment weighs on a scale. This is the basis for FCEL’s published weight-based air rates when actual weight applies.
A calculation based on how much space your packages occupy. Depending on the service and carrier, charges may be based on actual weight, dimensional weight, or the greater of the two.
Provide both weight and dimensions when requesting a final quote. FCEL does not publish a single universal volumetric formula — the applicable method depends on your service and shipment, and FCEL will confirm the chargeable weight with you.
What the Calculator Does Not Include
The calculator estimates freight using FCEL’s published rates. Estimates may not include or determine:
Customs duties
Determined by customs authorities based on your cargo and its declared value.
Taxes
Import taxes and levies that may apply at destination.
Destination charges
Charges that arise at the destination depending on handling and delivery arrangements.
Packaging charges
Packing materials and consolidation pack costs, where applicable.
Special handling
Requirements for unusual, fragile, or regulated cargo.
Delivery-specific charges
Costs that depend on your final delivery arrangement.
Inspection-related charges
Charges connected to cargo inspection, where applicable.
Other applicable charges
Third-party or shipment-specific charges that only become clear once your shipment is assessed.
FCEL does not assign amounts to these items unless officially supplied. Request a quote for a shipment-specific figure.
Why the Calculated Price May Differ from Your Final Quote
An estimate is only as accurate as the information behind it. Your final quotation can differ from the calculator result because of:
- Actual vs estimated weight — verified weigh-in at the warehouse may differ from your figure
- Dimensions — package size can change the chargeable weight
- Cargo classification — how your items are categorised affects the rate
- Destination — Lagos, Abuja, and Other States are priced differently
- Special-item charges — phones, TVs, fridges, and similar items carry their own charges
- Packaging — packing materials or consolidation packs
- Delivery requirements — how and where you want the shipment delivered
- Customs — duties, taxes, and government charges are determined outside FCEL’s rates
- Shipment documentation — incomplete or inaccurate paperwork can add cost
- Carrier requirements — carrier-specific rules can apply to certain cargo
Bottom line: use the calculator to plan and compare, then request a final quote before booking.
Air Freight or Sea Freight?
Both methods have their place. Use this guide to narrow it down, then compare both estimates in the calculator.
- Speed is important
- Cargo is relatively smaller
- The shipment is weight-based
- Goods are time-sensitive
- Cargo is bulky
- Cargo includes items priced by piece (barrels, TVs, bicycles, fridges)
- Larger shipments are involved
- Speed is less important
