Why keep a measurement record
If a carrier reweighs or inspects a shipment, your own record is what you compare its numbers against. See LTL reweigh and reclassification.
How to measure
Measure each piece at its longest, widest and tallest points, including the pallet and any overhang, and weigh it as it will ship. See how to measure a pallet.
Limits
The sheet records what you measure. It does not certify weight, dimensions or freight class. Density is calculated with the same formula as the freight density calculator.
