Re: Carton box dimension and gross weight to EU
Paul, Forgot to mention, one company years ago added their own maximum width dimension of less than 30 inches so the boxes could be put on a two wheel truck and easily wheeled through a standard door! - Robert - On Tue, 29 Jul 2003 15:41:54 +0800 Paul Chan ncc...@tuvps.com.hk wrote: Dear all, I have been asked for the max. dimension and weight of the carton box [loaded with product].

I read in !emc-pstc that Paul Chan ncc...@tuvps.com.hk wrote (in 003d01c355a4$e1e22e80$3608670a@pcv0115) about 'Carton box dimension and gross weight to EU' on Tue, 29 Jul 2003: I have been asked for the max. dimension and weight of the carton box [loaded with product]. Do you know any requirements/guidelines? I don't know of any maximum dimensions or weight, but there are marking and other requirements under the Manual Handling Directive (is it still called that?) for cartons over 5 kg and cartons whose centre-of-gravity is displaced from an approximately central position (such as those containing TV sets). -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?

Re: Carton box dimension and gross weight to EU
Paul, Sample shippers: http://www.ups.com At UPS website could not find any numbers, only definitions. http://www.fedex.com At the FedEx website could not find any weight restrictions, but did find Maximum length plus girth* per piece is 300 inches . where *Girth = 2(Width + Height) Maximum height per piece 70 inches Maximum length per piece 119 inches There was a footnote that said anything different could still be discussed. I remember a maximum from old days as either 60, or 70 pounds, essentially what a man could carry. But I believe that maximum restriction has been removed. Hope that helps - Robert - Robert A.
