Postage Calculator FAQs

What are the current Australian postage rates?

Postage rates depend on the parcel’s size, weight, and delivery distance. With our postage rate calculator, you can instantly compare prices from multiple couriers across Australia to find the best option.

How Is Postage Calculated?

Couriers calculate costs based on whichever is greater , dead weight or dimensional (volumetric) weight. Dead weight is your parcel’s actual weight on a scale. Dimensional weight reflects how much space it takes up during transport and is used for large, lightweight items. Our postage calculator automatically checks both to calculate postage accurately. This ensures you always see live courier rates on our quote page. Curious about how volumetric weight works? Check out our dimensional weight blog article to understand how couriers calculate pricing for parcels.

How much is postage per kg in Australia?

It varies depending on the courier, delivery zone, and service type. Use our postage calculator to compare rates from multiple couriers and find the best value for your route.

Are postage calculators accurate?

Yes, as long as you enter the correct dimensions and weights. Our shipping calculator uses real courier data to give you live, reliable pricing for both domestic and international deliveries.

Can I send pallets with the calculator?

Absolutely. The Interparcel tool works as both a parcel and pallet freight calculator, helping you compare bulk delivery rates and book larger shipments with ease.

Do I need an account to use the calculator?

No, you can get a quote instantly. But creating a free Interparcel account unlocks powerful features like discounted business rates based on your shipping volume, automation tools, and branded tracking.
