Consolidation & Repack
What is Consolidation?
Consolidation is a special reduction service for customers who shop from multiple online stores.
Our warehouse team combines multiple orders into a container; a box or a polybag, to reduce volumetric weight.
When shopping from multiple online stores and shipping directly, you pay multiple international shipping fees, which can be expensive.
Combining packages and shipping them as one package greatly reduce the shipping cost.
*Some items cannot be combined for consolidation
Items with irregular sizes or fragility, such as golf clubs, guitars, umbrellas, laundry poles, skateboards, walking sticks, and others, may not be eligible for consolidation into a single package.
*Certain items may attract customs charges
Customs duty is determined based on the package's value. By consolidating items, you may face additional or heightened customs charges. It is your responsibility to cover any charges incurred.
What is Repacking?
ShopnShip will repack your package by minimising the height of the package, thus reducing the volumetric weight.
The process of repacking will be placing the smaller package into one single box.
Example:Height of package being cut down
01 By trimming the existing box we will minimize the package’s height
and cut down boxes to achieve a lower dimensional weight.
02 If your purchases are deemed non-fragile, we will also remove any
unnecessary bubble packs or styrofoam to reduce size.
What is Volumetric(Dimensional) Weight? Volumetric vs. Actual Weight
AVolumetric weight is the ‘volume’ a package occupies (example; the physical size of a package)
AActual physical weight of a package is its actual weight measured in kilograms/pounds.
In international shipping, how much space a package occupies (volumetric weight) in a cargo hold is as important as how much it weights (actual weight).
Large packages, even if they are light, take up more space in an aircraft. This is why shipping companies take the volumetric weight into consideration.
If the volumetric weight exceeds the actual weight, the volumetric weight will be the default chargeable weight.
Volumetric weight is calculated by the Length x Height x Width of a package and dividing the result with a volumetric factor of 5000 or 6000 depending
on the carrier’s policy.
