WooCommerce Advanced Shipping Packages

Description

The Advanced Shipping Packages add-on splits the WooCommerce cart into multiple shipping packages based on configurable rules by product, category, shipping class, or weight, assigning a distinct shipping method to each package. Aimed at those who sell items with different natures (perishable, fragile, bulky) in the same order, it allows charging separate shipping rates and respecting logistical restrictions that a single shipping method cannot accommodate.

Key Features of Advanced Shipping Packages

• Automatic cart splitting
  Separates items into distinct packages at shipping rate calculation time.
• Conditional rules per package
  Defines each package based on product, category, shipping class, weight, or quantity.
• Dedicated shipping method
  Assigns rates, carriers, and delivery times specific to each created package.
• Combination of conditions
  Stacks criteria within the same rule to refine when the package is triggered.
• Standard checkout integration
  Operates within WooCommerce’s native flow without changing the checkout screen.

Benefits of Advanced Shipping Packages

• More accurate shipping charges
  The customer pays the real cost of each product category shipped.
• Heterogeneous catalog in the same order
  Allows selling items with incompatible logistics without blocking the purchase.
• Reduced shipping losses
  Avoids absorbing costs when products require different carriers.
• Less post-sale friction
  Reduces complaints about differing delivery times by separating packages at checkout.

Who Is Advanced Shipping Packages For?

• Those who sell perishable and non-perishable products in the same order and need to separate logistics.
• Operations with items of very different dimensions (furniture alongside accessories, for example).
• Dropship stores with multiple suppliers that ship separately.

How to Download Advanced Shipping Packages

Aimed at WooCommerce operations with a mix of products requiring different shipping methods, Advanced Shipping Packages organizes logistics at the cart level and gives the store owner back control over how much to charge for each grouping. The result is a checkout that reflects the reality of dispatch, without manual improvisation or costs absorbed due to mismatched shipping methods.
