The lower the number, the more overpriced (extra premium) the shipper is.
So basically for shipping that charges by volumetric weight. everything that can fit in that box would be charged at 3.168kg?

For freight calculation you need volumetric weight basically and volumetric weight will be greater of Gross weight or Chargeable weight Gross weight is actual weight let's say it is 150kg of a package that is to be shipped chargeable weight will be calculated using dimensions(in cm3) and a constant number which is 5000( if gross weight is in kg ) lets say dimensions are 100cm(length)*100cm(width)*100cm(heigth) =1000000 cm3 1000000/5000 =200kg (chargeable weigth=200kg) Chargeable weight is 200kg which is greater than actual/gross weight that is 150kg so we will choose larger one as volumetric weight and that will be 200kg thanks
