India Post parcel weight and size: measure package before choosing a service

Measure the parcel and note its weight before visiting the counter. Service limits and charges depend on the product and current postal rules.

Measure carefully

Record the packed parcel’s length, width, height and weight. Measure after packing because protective material adds to the final size and weight.

Confirm the service limit

Ask the booking counter which services accept the parcel dimensions and contents. Confirm current rates rather than using an old chart.

Keep proof

Check the receipt and retain the consignment number for tracking.
