Shipping costs for packages

    Dear Support, I came across the following problem.

    Building a site for a food delivery service. Customers can order from a weekly menu list with daily delivery. The daily products are assigned to product categories and also shipping classes.
    If a daily order goes above a certain value, delivery is free. Otherwise, delivery is charged according to delivery address postal code.

    I am able to sort the products into daily packages, but:
    – when the total cart value is below the free shipping limit, all days are charged for delivery, and
    – when the total cart value is over the limit but the daily packages themselfs are below the limit, free shipping is assigned for all the days.

    I have tried sorting with php code snippet and with sorting plugin also, with the same outcome. Woocommerce should calculate free shipping based on packages, not on cart when there are multiple packages. How to make it to do so?

    Hey there!

    I think there’s a bit of confusion here over the concept of packages in WooCommerce.

    When you checkout in WooCommerce, unless you explicitly tell it that there’s multiple packages, including creating the ability to handle multiple packages, then it’s all in one package to WooCommerce. You need a plugin that will split your cart into multiple packages, based on your categories/shipping classes.

    This plugin can do that: https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-advanced-shipping-packages/

    Hopefully that helps! Have a great one!
