Shipping Calculator – How to Calculate Cost to Ship from USA to India

The nature of shipping costs can sometimes be viewed as a puzzle. When shipping documents to India from USA or personal goods, including a car, it is essential to obtain an accurate weight to facilitate effective planning and budgeting.

This guide will take you through how Jio Worldwide makes this process easier by allowing you to get a quote through its intuitive feature.

1 : Location – Pinpointing Your Shipment’s Journey:

From: This is the destination to which your package is destined. You will be required to provide the country and zip code of the location where the shipment originates. These assist in establishing the initial cost of logistics and regional aspects.

To: This is the end zone of your shipment. Just like the origin, you will need to enter the country and zip code to which your package is being sent. The location and the specific delivery site are crucial factors in determining the total shipping cost.

2: Select Package – Defining Your Shipment Type

This is a crucial step, as various types of items are handled in different ways and are accompanied by different costs and shipment classifications. The nature of your goods will cause you to select one of the categories:

• Envelope: Typically used for documents or small, flat items.
• Boxes: Used for general merchandise and personal or consolidated shipments (larger).
• Auto: Especially the transportation of the vehicles.
• Moving: Bigger-sized personal moves that usually entail several boxes or household items.

3: Package Details – Quantifying Your Shipment:

This is where you provide technical details of your package, which have a direct impact on the final quote. The better your information here, the better your estimate will be:

• Quantity of Boxes: If you chose the option ‘Boxes’ on the last page, please provide the total number of separate boxes that you will transport.
• Weight (in lb/or kg/cm): It is essential. The weight of your package(s) must be entered in the weight box using either pounds/inches or kilograms/centimetres as the unit of measurement. Weight is a crucial aspect when it comes to accurate measurement, as it is one of the primary determinants of shipping costs.
• Dimensions: List the length, width and height of package(s). If you have several boxes, you may be required to type the dimensions of each one or an average when the dimensions are similar.
• Chargeable Weight: This field is typically calculated or stored internally and is not typically entered by the user. When comparing the actual weight and the volumetric (dimensional) weight, the chargeable weight is more significant; carriers mostly use it to count heavy and bulky, yet light, packages.
• Add Another Box: This is a very convenient feature which enables you to add information about another separate box in case you are shipping more than one package.

4: Contact – Ensuring Communication:

Finally, it is the last stage of leaving your contact details so that Jio Worldwide can contact you later with a final offer and any additional messages about your cargo:

• Country Code & Phone Number: This is required for direct communication.
• Name: Your first full name.
• Email Address: The place where your quote and any crucial information will be given.
• Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy: The terms are obligatory to receive this service, so be sure to review them carefully as you sign the agreement; you should know what terms you are accepting

After providing this information, Jio Worldwide will review your application, and a salesperson will follow up with you to provide a tailored shipping quote.
