To determine the cubic dimensions of a nonpalletized shipment, measure the shipment's height, width and length. Multiply those dimensions to obtain the cubic dimension of the shipment in inches.

To determine the cubic dimensions of a palletized shipment, combine the pallet dimensions with the shipment.

To determine the density of a cylindrical shaped object, or any article that is not square, rectangular or elliptical, multiply the greatest dimension on the cylindrical plane by itself, then multiply that result by the object's height or length. If the value is in cubic inches, divide the number by 1,728 cubic inches, then divide the weight by this number and the answer will provide your density figure.
