package L H W shipping settings - USPS

I wonder if anyone every figure out how to get a proper package size by not just weight figured out???

Problem with the items I sell weight doesn't equal size and USPS is very picky about package size these days, weight isn't enough.

I have to double the package weight or more so the shipping price is right for its size, not weight.

Like with Ebay, you must enter the package size into the shipping calc for a said item, so it spit out the right price to a said buyer.

And then on the smaller items using the proper weight sow a shipping price that is to much. I had to knock the weight down by .5 so it didn't charge to much.

Just been frustration trying to tweak the settings, checking each price against USPS and not be under or over charging customers.

If I could set the package L W H to calc the proper shipping, that would never be a problem.
