In this category
Which parcel limit belongs in a package delivery qualification form?
UPS's US guidance lists individual-package limits of 150 pounds, 165 inches in combined length and girth, and 108 inches in length. It notes local destination exceptions. Suggested practice: collect all three measures and check the route instead of applying one weight limit to an entire multi-parcel shipment.
Why can a lightweight parcel still attract a higher shipping charge?
UPS's US guidance applies dimensional-weight calculations to packages with a large size-to-weight ratio. Its shipment preview can show billable weight after dimensions are entered. Suggested practice: request packed dimensions alongside actual weight; a product's scale weight alone does not establish the parcel charge.
Which handling exceptions should a package offer disclose before purchase?
UPS's US guidance says additional handling may apply for specified oversized sides, heavier packages, non-corrugated packaging or domestic cubic size. Suggested practice: show the applicable service criteria at quoting time rather than promising every accepted parcel ships without handling charges.
Does delivery to a home business count as commercial shipping?
UPS's US guidance includes a home-based business in a residential area within residential delivery. Incorrect classification can produce charge corrections. Suggested practice: qualify the actual destination type, not just whether the recipient runs a business, before presenting a shipping estimate.

The exact category cohort does not support a publishable AOV aggregate.
Median and middle 50% of account-level average order values. Each account value is purchase ROAS multiplied by cost per purchase in USD. Successful classifications, including manual corrections, with positive finite spend, purchases, ROAS and cost per purchase. Accounts are counted once with equal weight. Quartiles use linear interpolation. Root cohorts include direct root classifications and their child categories; exact-child cohorts exclude parent and sibling categories. The source selects the highest-spend coverage row per account among snapshots dated within the preceding 30 days; the underlying reporting period is not supplied. This is a dated aggregate advertising-data snapshot, not business-wide AOV or a census. Parent and sibling benchmarks are never substituted.
