A courier charges a sample-suit parcel on its actual weight or its volumetric weight, whichever is greater, so ask the factory for the packed box length, width, height and gross weight before you book or approve the courier. Volumetric weight is length × width × height in centimetres divided by a carrier factor; Wikipedia's dimensional-weight entry lists common metric factors of 5000 and 6000 cm³/kg. A suit folded in a 60 × 50 × 15 cm box works out at 45,000 ÷ 5000 = 9 kg volumetric — usually more than the suit weighs.

What should you ask for before booking the courier?
- Packed box size: Length × width × height in cm — Drives volumetric weight
- Gross weight: Box plus contents, in kg — Compared against volumetric
- Packing method: Folded in a box, or on a hanger in a garment box — Hanger boxes are larger
- Carrier factor: From your courier account (for example 5000 or 6000) — Changes the result
How do you keep the volumetric weight down?
- Ask whether the sample can travel folded with tissue rather than on a hanger box.
- Send jacket and trousers in one box rather than two.
- Agree the packing method in writing before the sample ships, so the box size you were quoted is the box that arrives.
Do courier days count inside the sample clock?
No. Sample 7–14 days covers making the sample once measurements, cloth and construction are locked; courier transit follows. Production 14–21 days runs after sample approval. Production days are not delivery days. Plan the client date with transit added on top.
