overweight fee
Heavy bag charge
An overweight fee is a charge imposed when luggage or cargo exceeds a weight limit, typically on airlines or shipping services.
The fee increases with the excess weight: My suitcase was three pounds over and they hit me with a fifty-dollar overweight fee.
Also called an excess baggage fee.
