Sea Freight - Cubic Metre Conversion

To establish the CBM of a consignment:

- Convert all measurements to METRES
- Mulitply the greatest LENGTH x the greatest WIDTH x the greatest HEIGHT of the consignment or its packages
- The resultant amount is the CBM of the consignment

EXAMPLE:

The dimensions of a consigment are 1.3m x 1.2m x 1.9m

1.3 x 1.2 x 1.9 = 2.97 CBM
