Multi-Package Shipping with Virtual Categories

Our WooCommerce shipping plugin enhances the default multi-package shipping feature by allowing you to split orders into multiple packages based on various criteria. This capability provides greater flexibility and control over shipping methods for different groups of products within the same order.

Say you have 2 types of product in your website one belonging to category Small items, and another as Large items, now you want to charge a flat rate $50 per unit for the shipping of large items and use Canada post shipping plugin to calculate shipping for small items, our plugin can handle this scenario very well for you.

You will create a Virtual category for Small items (see screenshot)

Now you will create a split package rule so we can split the order in multiple shipping package with each package getting shipped by its shipping method

Here is how you will create a splitting rule (see screenshot)

Now will create a shipping method that will get applied only to the package which dont have Small items (that is they only contain Large items)

Here is how the shipping method will be configured

Here is the result of this configuration, in the below screenshot you can see 2 packages, In this screenshot you can see Large item product Belt ×5, Beanie class 1 ×1, Cap ×1 AND Small item product Hoodie with Zipper ×1 . You can see both this product are shown in separate shipping package with a shipping method assigned for each shipping package. For the Small item you can see Canada post so its calculation is handled by your Canada post shipping plugin where as Large item shipping method is our plugin shipping method charging you 50 * [qty] ([qty] is the quantity of product in this package)
