How do I measure my parcel?

You'll need three measurements for your parcel. To get these dimensions, measure in centimeters from top-bottom, left-right, and front-back, like the image below.

If your parcel is an odd shape (not rectangular), measure it as though it is inside a rectangular shaped box, so to the longest edge for each dimension.

Some couriers ask for the girth, which is the measurement around the whole parcel (like a measurement of your own waistline). Measure around the parcel to get the circumference.
