Getting ready to sent something? You’ve probably hit the “How much does this thing weight?” dilemma. Don’t stress—we’ve all been there! Knowing your parcel’s weight and size isn’t just helpful; it’s essential to avoid surprises (like unexpected delivery fees!). The best part? You don’t even need fancy tools to figure it out.
How to Find Your Parcel’s Weight
1. Check the Product Details Online
If your parcel’s from an online store, chances are the weight is already listed in the product details. A quick peek at the retailer’s page can save you a ton of guesswork🧘.
2. Compare with a Similar Item
Can’t find the weight? No problem. 👀 Search for something similar online! If your parcel looks like a toaster, check the weight of a similar toaster—it’s a great way to estimate.
3. Bathroom Scale Hack
No fancy parcel scale? Grab your bathroom scale! Weigh yourself first, then step back on while holding the parcel. Subtract your weight from the total, and TA-DA—you’ve got your parcel’s weight (and maybe some fitness motivation…oops🤭).
How to Measure Your Parcel
Who needs a measuring tape when your phone can do it for you? Use your smartphone’s built-in tools or download a third-party measurement App. It’s like having a magical tape measure in your pocket. Just point your phone at the parcel, and the app will calculate its dimensions. Science, right?
After You Measure—What’s Next?
Once you’ve figured out your parcel’s size and weight, it’s time to find the perfect vehicle for your delivery needs. Whether it’s a small scooter for quick drop-offs or a spacious van for bulky items, we’ve got you covered.
