What is Length and Girth?

The length is the measurement of the longest dimension and the girth is generally referred to as the distance or circumference of an object. The combined length and girth is the total piece size of the package; also referred to as parcel size, girth size, or piece dimensions.

Combined Length and Girth Calculations

Please note: The value for the length should be the longest side of your package.

Step One = (Width + Height) x 2

Combined length and girth = length + Step One
