WooCommerce Shipping Plugin With ESP

Hi @mrtechnique!

In some of our premium shipping methods — such as USPS, UPS, and FedEx — the boxes used to ship are automatically calculated based on the dimensions of the items in the customer’s cart. These calculations are possible by adding the shipping dimensions of your products.

You can find more information about box packing here:

To add shipping dimensions to your products, please refer to this documentation:
https://woocommerce.com/document/adding-dimensions-and-weights-to-products-for-shipping

Let us know how it goes for you!

I know shipping prices can be displayed if I put in the product dimensions. A friend of a client is saying that it is possible for a plugin to calculate shipping for a product without having to enter any item dimension. I don’t think that is possible at all for any plugin because how can a plugin know a product’s dimensions without someone putting them in?

As far as WooCommerce respects, it needs the product dimensions to calculate shipping prices.

If a plugin can calculate shipping prices without product dimensions, it could be some custom-made feature. In that case, the plugin’s support team would be more appropriate to give you this information.

If you are referring to the UPS Shipping Method, please contact us WooCommerce.com > My Account > Support. You may need to create an account before you can access that page.

We will be able to help you further there.

Also, if you want to, you can check this with one of the customization experts listed on the WooCommerce Customizations Page; they might have a custom solution for you.

Cheers!

Thank you for your quick responses.

Hello,

When working with WooCommerce sites the best strategy is to have control over your products to avoid confusion, errors, or unhappy customers.

Adding dimensions to your products as my colleague said is a good idea, to learn more about this please visit:
