Package Weight and Dimension Limits

Posted by Tania

It is important to know the maximum shipping size of your shipments to avoid undue charges for over-sized packages. Below are package weight and dimension limits for individual packages, not the entire shipment.  So whether you have 1 package or 15 packages these guidelines are for each individual package within the shipment.

Note that exceeding package weight and dimension limits set by the courier will result in additional charges, that are typically quite expensive.
