Formula

How CBM is calculated

CBM stands for Cubic Meter. It is used to measure the volume of cargo for shipping and logistics — including sea freight CBM, LCL CBM calculator work, FCL planning and China to Pakistan shipping estimates.

  • CBM = Length × Width × Height after converting each side to meters.
  • When dimensions are in millimeters: CBM = L × W × H ÷ 1,000,000,000
  • When dimensions are in centimeters: CBM = L × W × H ÷ 1,000,000
  • For multiple cartons: Total CBM = CBM per carton × number of cartons
