Shipping weight is used to calculate the fulfillment fees. The shipping weight is calculated based on the item’s unit weight or dimensional weight.

Fees for small standard, special oversize, and extra-large 150+ lbs are calculated using only unit weight. The dimensional weight is equal to the unit volume (length x width x height) divided by 139. The dimensional weight for oversize, large bulky, and extra-large items assumes a minimum width and height of 2 inches. The total shipping weight for each unit if less than 1 pound is rounded up to the nearest whole ounce. If it weighs more than 1 pound, it’s rounded up to the nearest whole pound.
