We are looking for a solution that will allow us to ship orders via UPS that the order weight is greater than 150 lbs.  Does the cart have the capability of forcing orders, based on weight, into multiple packages for shipping?

Thank you,

Darren

Hi Darren,

When the total order weight exceeds the Max Package Weight, a second (or more) packages is calculated and the Cart will create the appropriate number of additional xml sections including the corresponding calculated weights to be passed to the UPS
api when calculating shipping cost.

For example, if the total weight of the items in the cart is 350 lbs and max package weight is 150 lbs the cart will calculate number of packages and weight as follows:

  • 350/150 = 2.5 (round up) = 3 packages
  • Package 1 and 2 weight = 150 lbs
  • Package 3 weight = 50 lbs

 

Thanks,
