Group haul split calculator
Shipping one big parcel usually costs less per item than everyone shipping their own. Add each person's items with their weight from the agent's warehouse, enter what the parcel cost, and see what everyone owes. Nothing is saved on our side: the split lives in the link you share.

How the split works
Shipping is shared by weight: if your items are 40% of the parcel's weight, you pay 40% of the shipping. Duties and taxes are shared by item value, because that's how they're usually charged. Other fees such as packaging or insurance are split evenly. Amounts are rounded to the cent so they add up exactly to what you paid.
Where to find the weights
Most agents weigh each item when it reaches the warehouse and show the weight in grams next to the QC photos. Use those numbers rather than guesses. Bulky items like shoe boxes and puffer jackets can make a parcel more expensive than its weight suggests (many shipping lines charge for volume too), so agree in the group whether the owner of the bulky item covers a bit more.
Tips for group hauls
- Agree on who pays the agent and when everyone pays them back before anything is ordered.
- Ask the agent to remove shoe boxes and vacuum-pack clothes to keep the parcel small.
- Check your country's import limits before adding more items to one parcel.
