LCL rates are charged either on per
cubic meter (CBM)
weight of 1000 kilograms (1 ton) whichever is higher

Here's a sample calculation:
Cargo measurements as follows:
Length: 1.5 meters
Width: 1.5 meters
Height: 1.5 meters
Weight 765 kgs or .765 tons

Step 1: Know your CBM calculation
CBM is equal to length multiplied by width multiplied by height

Using the sample measurements you'll have
1.5 meters x 1.5 meters x 1.5 meters

So CBM in this case is 3.375

Step 2: Compare CBM with the actual weight of the cargo

CBM at 3.375 versus weight of .765 tons
