Charge shipping per kg


Recommended Posts

Basic shipping costs my carrier charge.

 

 

0-3 kg 106:-

3-5 kg 120:-

5-10 kg 172:-

10-15 kg 209:-

15-20 kg 247:-

20-25 kg 281:-

30-35 kg 302:-

35-50 kg 331:-

50+ kg 8,40/kg

 

They also charge per volume where each m3=280kg.

 

Is it in any way possible to set Presta up to charge 8,40:- per kg if total order weight is > 50kg or should I generate 4000 weight ranges to cover all my bases?

Unfortunately you will have to create the weight ranges unless you can find an alternative shipping module to do it.

 

May I ask what products you are selling that require so many weight ranges.

 

You wouldn't necessarily have to set up all of those weight ranges, just the ranges that covers your products and likely multiples thereof.

Everything in the range between a single F-connector to 4.8 meter satellite dish...and more.

 

I have it set up as you suggest with our old webshop and it's far from optimal. It creates irritation with customers who end up on the wrong side of a threshold and manual labour for us. I want it to run automagically with a spoonful of sugar on top.

 

If I can't find a shipping module that covers _this_ or Presta 1.5 includes _this_ and launches before we are ready to switch over we will most likelt end up paying someone to write us a module for "everything above THIS value = x SEK per kg".

I think I've learned enough about PS to be able to hard code this into my shop. Not the prettiest of solutions but 'til this become a core feature it will have to do.

 

Care to share your solution so others with a similar problem could use it.

When (if) I fix it I will post about it. Currently reading up on things to try and avoid fuhl-kawd (that's would be 'fugly code' for you who speak amerrrrrikan). :)

Or someone else if has figured out how to charge per kg if weight exceeds range..
