According to this article also YRCW is testing a new pricing system.

A move to density-based or "dimensional" pricing would allow carriers to determine the true cost of each shipment based on weight and space utilized, thus generating more revenue per shipment. In anticipation of the shift, YRC Freight, the long-haul unit of LTL carrier YRC Worldwide Inc., plans to acquire nearly 40 dimensioning machines that will scan a shipment and calculate its cube.
