Auto choose shipping method

    I sell different kinds of products and I don’t want the customer to choose their own shipping option because if the total no. of items or its volume won’t fit in a certain box.
    For eg.
    Shipping options: (Small, Medium, Large) parcel
    Each parcel has a limit on how many items it can carry (small = 3 items) and each parcel has a different price.

    I as as customer, has 5 items…so of course it won’t fit in the small parcel so it should be the medium parcel.

    Is it possible to automatically select a shipping method, according to a certain condition so that the customer won’t have to choose a parcel? because obviously they will choose the cheapest one. And its kinda confusing for me. If you can kindly suggest another plugin associated with woocommerce, that would be lovely.

    Additional:
    Once the customer has reached the limit of the large parcel, it would automatically add an another parcel size to add with the large parcel.

    Hi @cjwinsteria

    Depending on the types of packages you are sending and your preferred Shipping provider, there are several options that you can choose from to offer shipping on your site that doesn’t allow the customer to select the shipping.

    Here are a list of shipping options available on WooCommerce.com:

    Hi there,

    That’s difficult to say for sure as we have very little information about your store, where it’s located and where the bulk of your customers are located. If your shop is located in the US, one popular option would be to use USPS. For more information on what’s possible with USPS, have a look at the following guide: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/usps-shipping-method/
