Dimensional weight is for every service level, I am a shipping manager at my company and have been doing this for 18 yrs. we primarily ship with UPS, we use their UPS worldship software and you put the weight in plus dimensions of the package, it could weigh 2lbs. but depending on the size that weight goes from 2 lbs. to 30 lbs. depending on the size of the box used.
UPS in particular daily volume is 12 million packages worldwide, they have to pack their trailers or planes as efficiently as possible to maximize the amount of packages they can transport, while ground service is cheaper, UPS is not a true residential delivery company, so they add a residential delivery charge, fuel surcharge and depending on where you are at from a UPS or FedEx hub an extended distance delivery charge not including insurance if you so chose to insure your package.
