How To Avoid Misdeclared Parcel Weight

EasyParcel is a prepaid delivery basis where booking is made before collection by the courier. No matter what parcel you’re sending off, you will need to calculate both volumetric weight and actual weight, and quote whichever is higher on the website.

When the shipment is heavier or larger than originally declared, extra charges at EasyParcel’s normal rate for the additional weight will be automatically charged to your EasyParcel account based on the final weight validated by courier company. You will be informed via email if weight discrepancy is reported.

Keep in mind that you need to quote for the weight whichever is higher.
