How to show local shipping rates on my product/cart OR just cart page

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A Shopify store owner in Australia needs help displaying local freight/shipping rates on their product or cart page.

Current Setup:

  • Using Dawn 11.0 theme
  • Local freight enabled with 3 postcode-based shipping rates
  • Sells only within one Australian state

The Problem:

  • Wants customers to calculate shipping costs before checkout
  • Tried using apps but they don’t accommodate local freight rates
  • Apps seem designed for more complex “general shipping rates” rather than simple local freight

Seeking Solution:

  • Needs implementation on either product page AND cart page, OR just cart page
  • Looking for the easiest approach between these options
  • Specifically needs local rates only, not broader general shipping rates

The discussion remains open with no responses or solutions provided yet.

Hi,

I have local freight (shipping) enabled in my store.

I have setup 3 x shipping rates that are postcode based/calculated

I want customers to be able to calculate their freight cost, either in the product and cart page OR just in the cart page. Either would be an improvement, so whichever is easiest.

I have tried using apps, but they do not seem to accomodate local freight rates, just the more complex “General shipping rates”

I only sell in one state in Australia, so I do not need the more general rates, just the local.

I am using Dawn 11.0 theme.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
