The one common pitfall all the eCommerce shippers face while transporting the products is inaccurate parcel dimensions on small and mid-size parcel shipments. Nowadays, eCommerce is booming by manifolds, and consumers rarely shop in physical stores; instead, they prefer to buy products online, resulting in massive online orders.
