Ship everything as one consolidated parcel. Never split into tiny parcels. The meter counts actual (scale) weight; prices use chargeable weight.

How to do it
- Choose your destination country.
- Add items to the virtual basket or type the total weight.
- Compare the estimated price, transit time and billed weight for each route.
- Keep consolidating until the 1 kg meter is full — the per-kg price drops after the first-weight block.
FAQ
Are these official prices?
No. They are editorial estimate ranges with a source and check date. Real prices depend on promotions, routes and parcel contents — always confirm the live quote in your forwarder’s app.
Why does the meter ask for 1 kg?
Below about 1 kg you still pay for the first-weight block, so the cost per 100 g is high. Consolidating several items into one parcel above 1 kg lowers the unit cost. Never split an order into tiny parcels.
Air or sea?
Air is faster (about 1–3 weeks) and suits small parcels. Sea is slower (about 2–9 weeks) but cheaper per kg once you pass the minimum chargeable weight, which suits heavy or bulky orders.
