Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Weight Based Shipping for WooCommerce

Give each weight range a price of its own, charge a rate for every unit of weight, or combine the two. The shipping by weight recipe puts all three tables side by side.

The same way: rules follow the store unit, so the same tables read as lbs or oz without conversion. Worked examples in pounds: shipping per lb.

Bound the paid rules so their value range stops at the threshold. Past that point nothing but the free rule applies. In the Pro edition, placing the free rule first with the Stop mod does the same. The free shipping over an amount recipe shows the working table.

Name the country or state in the Destination column of each rule, and leave a catch-all for everywhere else. Rates by country shows a domestic and international table.

Through weight. When a product line weighs the same per unit, a price per unit of weight is a price per item; the quantity based shipping recipe sets that up, bulk pricing included.

Yes. Put them in a shipping class and write a rule per class — a flat price for one, a per-kilogram rate for another, a surcharge on a third. Rates by shipping class.

Yes. A group of products can travel free while the rest of the cart pays, and the presence of one product can make an entire order free. Free shipping for specific products covers both.

Stop them counting toward the threshold, stop them shipping free, or both at once. Exclude products from free shipping works through the three arrangements.

Yes, through WooCommerce zones built from postcodes: lists, wildcards and ranges all work there, and a method placed in such a zone prices exactly that area. Shipping zones and the global method.

Yes. It is an ordinary zone method and sits next to any other, so a weight-based rate, a flat rate, and local pickup can be offered side by side. A free rule of the plugin is simply one more option and does not hide the others.
