Wow
Thank you peeps, 0.8 is close enough to what I need to know. The boxes will be shipped together in 1 box, but the rate goes up each cubic metre so asking for a quote for 1 cubic metre is close enough for me! Properly confusing. |

Proper confusing would be asking someone to write an algorithm that would tell you how best to arrange the four packages so that the result fitted into a cuboid of minimum volume...

I would have thought that even asking for a quote for 0.25m^3 would have been well in.
You'd have to do quite a bit of glueing and balancing to get them to stand up in an arrangement bigger than that. |

Yeah. I got a quote before I got the dimensions, (I guessed).
After getting the dimensions I tried to work out if I was close enough to not be too much over, and got all confused! Luckily I think I'll be within tolerance (with the extra padding of an outer box). |

Hi Just saw this... what is it your shipping? and where? i work for a courier / shipping co so could possibly help out - also what price have they given you? Also depending on the means of shipping / road / etc the calculations are different. PM me if you wish. Rgds Darren. |

1 cubic meter is way more than you need, as it adds up to .08m3 not .8m3

1 m^3 would be a helluva big parcel.
Anyway, what's in it? |
