Editor's Notes

  1. While a switch to dimensional weight pricing will ensure carriers get paid properly for the space in their vehicles, manual measuring isn’t necessarily good enough. In order to really maximize revenue potential and ensure you are paid for every inch of space, you should leverage from an automatic measuring system.
  2. With an automatic dimensioner you are ensured accurate results every time. You get paid properly for the space you provide and your customer can be sure their invoice is correct.
  3. Customer will receive a correct invoice everytime. Sometimes invoices will be lower than expected and they will know they can trust your measurements and your company.
  4. A dimensional weight pricing structure means that customers of large, lightweight items are invoiced according to the relatively large amount of space their shipment requires. It is therefore in the interest of your customers to condense consignments as much as possible. It is typical that deliveries arrive in boxes that are too big; fragile goods may be wrapped in excessive bubble wrap and frequently outer cartons are filled mostly with air. Being somewhat penalised for such items will encourage denser packing and reduced use of packaging materials. Carriers won’t then be accused of ‘moving air’ which is not cost effective and has a negative impact on the environment. Denser packing also means less movement of goods within the boxes, reducing the risk of damage during handling. We are constantly being asked to evaluate the environmental impact of our actions. While the challenges faced by the transport industry in this regard don’t end here, by switching to automatic dimensioning you are doing your bit to reduce emissions. An automatic dimensioning solution is an investment you can make to increase revenue, while keeping your conscience clear.
