Calculate a parcel’s girth and longest side plus girth, then check the limits you supply.

Your input

Outputs are cleared when the input changes.

Result

Enter your data or use the example, then run the tool.

Worked example

60 × 40 × 30 cm has 140 cm girth and 200 cm length + girth; side-entry order does not change the result.

Method

Sort the dimensions to identify the longest side. Girth = 2 × (the other two sides added); combined length = longest side + girth. Use the same selected unit for dimensions and their limits.

Limits

Applies to rectangular parcels, not cylinders or irregular shapes. Carrier limits, prices and acceptance rules are not supplied. Passing the limits you enter does not mean a carrier has accepted the parcel.
