Multiple pick up locations that are not owned by me

[twylarasco]

I sell bulk detergent in heavy 5 gallon buckets so I can not ship. I travel around to several towns and meet up in parking lots to deliver the products. How can I set my check out to show the different locations and addresses where the customer can choose the location they will meet up in? I've tried to add locations and it requires me to actually own the store that I am meeting at. These are not stores that are owned by me, just public mall shopping areas. Is there an app that can help me?

Hi, there. 

When setting up shipping locations in Shopify it refers to physical locations so I can see where the issue here comes from.

What you'll want to do instead of this is create custom shipping rates and name them to your shipping offerings. So in this case you can set up shipping settings naming your pickup locations, and assigning custom rates to them. You can learn how to set up these custom rates here.

Example below of how you can set up a custom rate for your offer.

Rate: $X 

Name: [Town Name] - [Parking Lot]

This way, when a customer is checking out and sees your shipping offerings. They'll just see where it's available to be picked up and they can choose their location and parking address.

Try that out and let us know how it goes!
