What is the maximum weight and maximum length plus girth allowed for FedEx First Overnight, Priority Overnight, and 2 Day?

• A. 150 pounds per package maximum and not to exceed 165 inches in length plus girth
• B. 75 pounds and 180 inches
• C. 200 pounds and 170 inches
• D. 120 pounds and 150 inches

Answer: (A)

For these FedEx Express services, the limits are a per‑package weight of 150 pounds and a size defined by length plus girth not exceeding 165 inches. Length is the longest dimension of the package, and girth is 2 times the sum of the other two dimensions (width and height). So the combined measurement must stay at or below 165 inches. For example, a box 60 inches long with cross‑section 20 by 20 inches has girth 2*(20+20) = 80; total length plus girth = 140 inches, which is allowed. A box 70 inches long with cross‑section 40 by 30 inches would have girth 2*(40+30) = 140; total = 210 inches, which would not be allowed. Hence the correct limits are 150 pounds and 165 inches, matching that option.
