Shipping calculations and options


Recommended Posts

I have what I believe to be a complex configuration.  I need some advice on configuration and understanding.

 

My store will offer free shipping on orders over $5K US.  Shipping carrier will be determined by us depending on item(s) purchased for those orders over $5K.  We use UPS for the majority of items unless a single item(s) exceeds the 150 lb weight limit as determined by UPS (unless it is their freight service of course).

 

I want to make certain of the following:

 

  1. Customers will be able to opt out of free shipping if they choose to get their items via an expedited method.
  2. Total cart weight over 150 lbs can still be shipped via UPS on multi-item orders (given that many items can/will be packaged separately)
  3. Hybrid shipping cart.  Shipping rates are calculated in a single order for those multi-cart shoppers who purchase items that must ship via two separate methods i.e. cart contains items that are over 150 lbs and items under 150 lbs.

I have the following set:

 

  1. Separate free shipping carrier set to become available for item/cart orders over $5K US.
  2. UPS set to max weight of 150 lbs.

 

 

Anything I'm missing?   One final thought, Free shipping becomes available on all carriers (UPS) instead of just the one we've set up and does not show any options for more expedient shipping as previously mentioned.
