Plain-language summary
How This Site Handles Information
Freight Class Calculator is a small utility site for density-based LTL freight class and freight density planning estimates. You can use the calculators without creating an account, making a payment, or submitting shipment documents.
Calculator input privacy
Calculator inputs such as dimensions, weight, quantity, and units are used to calculate results in your browser. The site is designed as a planning reference, not a shipment booking system, carrier portal, or freight document processor.
