Managing your store default package

In your石屏和交付settings, the package used to calculate shipping rates at checkout is indicated with the following text:This package is used to calculate shipping rates at checkout. This package is used to determine the shipping rate to charge your customers during checkout when using weight-based or carrier-calculated shipping rates.

If you have weight-based rates, then the weight of this package is added to the weight of the products being shipped to determine which weight-based rate to charge.

The shipping box dimensions advertised by your shipping carrier might refer to the inside of the packaging. You need to measure and use the outside dimensions of your shipping boxes when creating packages because the outside dimensions are used to calculate the shipping cost.

For example, suppose you have a default package weight of .1825 kg and you have the following weight-based shipping rates:

• 0 to 4.99 kg = 3 USD shipping rate
• 5 to 9.99 kg = 5 USD shipping rate
• 10 to 19.99 kg = 10 USD shipping rate

Suppose a customer purchases products that weigh a total of 4.9 kg. When the customer reaches your checkout, the default package weight of .1825 kg is added to the weight of the products. Because the products and default package have a combined weight of 5.0825 kg, the customer would be charged the 5 USD shipping rate instead of the 3 USD shipping rate.
