How can the shipping weight be 40 lbs when the pail says 7lbs 5oz for this one and 8lbs for the lunch dinner pail?

I Just weighed the the bucket in its original shipping packaging (just a perfect size box) and it came to 10.2 lbs altogether. The 7lbs 5 oz is probably just the total of the food pouches. With the plastic container, it came to 10lbs even. So no Idea where the 40lbs is coming from. Probably a way to try to justify the enormous shipping expense. Hope this helps.

the product weight is 37LB, the shipping weight is 70LB because UPS/FedEX now charge so called dimension weight and charge another $8.50 for the second dimension more than 30"

I never weighed it, but it was light could hold the bag with on hand (before you fill the core with water). Shipping cost shouldn't be a issue.

It's about 2 lbs with carton and an outside packing box; a gallon of liquid is about 8 to 10 lbs for comparison.

Mines weighing 3.8oz and ive used a few feet, so I'd imagine you'd be correct with your calculation of 4oz. Hope this helps.

As you've pointed out, density = mass / volume. So yes, you're correct in thinking it should be about 41 "pounds" (18.5 kg, since we're talking "mass"). I didn't actually weigh mine, and I don't recall what the shipping label stated it weighed, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's about that.

5 fluid ounces is the weight of the contents of what is in the bottle. The shipping weight is: the weight of the contents + the weight of the bottle + the weight of the box (assuming there was a box) + the packaging used for shipping.

I doubt it's 8 lbs. More like 2 or 3. Definitely not 8 ounces. Could be a shipping category.We use ours all the time to put groceries in. You could actually fit 2 in the back of your Outback and I've often wished we had more than 1.

Hello Matt: If you ordered 40 lbs. of the glass in our 10, 4 lb. increments it comes out to $119.00 + $24.49 shipping for a grand total of $143.49.Thank you for your time.-BG

I would guess it weighs 8 oz. at most. If I had a postal scale I could say exactly, but it's weight is negligible.

I weighed it at 5oz with the blister pack. When I ship I round up to 8oz for the carton and packing. Dave's Knives

It may be that the dimensional weight of the item -- a measure used by UPS and other shippers to calculate shipping costs for large or bulky items -- is 8.8 pounds while the actual weight is only 3 pounds. For questions related to a specific order, I suggest you contact the seller directly using the Amazon email system.

I believe the shipping weight was 18#. I did send two of these back for the following reason, I wasn't happy with it because the lid didn't fit very well and would not close tight to the pot.

It's 40lbs. Btw, having a 40lb bag shipped straight to your door without having to haul it around anywhere is well worth the extra few $s, IMHO.

My 3 qt. pan weights 2 lbs. and the lid weights 14.25 oz. I presume the rest of the 5 lbs. is box and packing material.

I can't tell you how much it weigh's as it's in service,but I'll try to weigh it next time it's refilled. I was too concerned about it's weight being it's glass instead of plastic,but it's not a need for concern.We had a 5 gallon plastic jug befor,and this is so much nicer.It's not bulky,and it's not a chore to put it on the cooler. I fill it up to refill,but my wife is 110 lbs. she fills it half way cause she more safe. At 3 gallons it's still way lighter .A gallon of water is 8 lbs. The bottle is not even 5lbs i don't think.By the way if you check the numbers on the bottom of plastic bottled water your not supposed to store water in the containers cause the plastic can leach into the water.So I don't care what it weighs.
