Local Delivery Help

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A merchant wants to offer local delivery for certain products while restricting others to carrier shipping only.

Solution provided involves three key steps:

  1. Separate Locations – Create distinct locations in Settings > Locations: one for local delivery items and another for shipped products. Assign products accordingly.

  2. Enable Local Delivery – Navigate to Settings > Shipping and Delivery and activate Local Delivery for the location containing eligible products.

  3. Custom Shipping Profiles – Set up separate shipping profiles:

    • One profile for local delivery items (with shipping rates disabled)
    • Another profile for shipped products (with local delivery disabled)

This configuration allows different fulfillment methods to coexist within the same Shopify store.

Is there a way to do this?

I have certain items we want to offer local delivery, but not ship it through a carrier

But have other products that can only be shipped out via a carrier?

Hi @ChrisCavanaugh

Shopify allows you to set up local delivery for certain products while restricting others to shipping only.

Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Use Separate Locations – Create a new location in Settings > Locations for local delivery items and another for shipped products. Then, assign products to the correct location.

  2. Set Up Local Delivery – In Settings > Shipping and Delivery, enable Local Delivery for the location with eligible products.

  3. Use Shipping Profiles – In Settings > Shipping and Delivery, create custom shipping profiles:

    One profile for local delivery items (disable shipping rates).
    Another for shipped products (disable local delivery).
