Carrier cargo delivery
-
Like general delivery, the amount is calculated based on the heavier of the actual weight/volumetric weight (25KG MAX)
-
Carrier HANDLING SURCHARGE: 40 € per carrier
Example) If the carrier's width, length, and height are 40*30*60 and its weight is 10kg
Volumetric weight: 0.4 x 0.3 x 0.6 x 200 =14.40
Since the volumetric weight is greater than the actual weight,
15kg shipping fee + handling surcharge 40 €
*In the case of carriers or irregular courier services, they are shipped by KYOUNGDONG Express instead of Post Office parcel service.
