Cardboard Box Weight Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Cardboard Box Weight.
CBW = L*W*H/166
Variables:
- CBW is the Cardboard Box Weight (lbs)
- L is the cardboard box length (in)
- W is the cardboard box width (in)
- H is the cardboard box height (in)
To calculate a cardboard box weight, multiply the length, width, and height to get the volume, then divide by 166.
How to Calculate Cardboard Box Weight?
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Cardboard Box Weight.
Example Problem #1
- First, determine the cardboard box length (in).
- The cardboard box length (in) is calculated to be : 10.
- Next, determine the cardboard box width (in).
- The cardboard box width (in) is measured to be: 15.
- Next, determine the cardboard box height (in).
- The cardboard box height (in) is found to be: 20.
- Finally, calculate the Cardboard Box Weight using the formula above:
CBW = L*W*H/166
The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.
CBW = 10*15*20/166 = 18.07 (lbs)
Example Problem #2
The variables required for this problem are provided below:
cardboard box length (in) = 15
cardboard box width (in) = 15
cardboard box height (in) = 30
Test your knowledge and check your answer with the calculator.
CBW = L*W*H/166 = (lbs)
