What Affects Domestic Cargo Prices

Weight & volumetric size

Carriers charge whichever is greater: actual or volumetric weight (L×W×H cm ÷ 5000).

Origin & destination

Route zone determines the base rate. Remote or island destinations carry access surcharges.

Service level

Economy vs express. Express costs 40–80% more but offers next-day or time-guaranteed delivery.

Fuel surcharge

All carriers apply a fuel surcharge updated monthly — typically 10–25% of the base rate.

Customs (international)

Cross-border shipments may attract import duties and VAT at destination — declared value required.

Economy 2–3 day domestic delivery costs up to 40% less than next-day express.
