    Default Re: Help With YellowFreight Table Rate Shipping

    What I should have mentioned earlier is that I have a .cgi script that I put codes together and with the help from another person around 6 years or so that works on my old site.

    The .cgi script that I have will give the total shipping cost based on the zip code that they enter in. Now that I'm using Zen Cart, I need a shipping cost calculation that will give a freight shipping cost based on the WEIGHT+ZIP..... shipping from ZIP CODE 30635 GA

    I wish there was an easy way to ship based on the zip+weight.

    Most of my items weigh OVER 150 lbs, and I only ship to the lower 48 states. Remember, 150+ lbs is considered freight. I do use UPS on my site and it seems to work, except when the weight is 150 lbs, the UPS calculator won't give me a shipping quote because they don't ship over 150 lbs an item. So I use the shippers that my suppliers use, so I don't have to be calling them for shipping quotes. I base the shipping cost of the item from the supplier's zip code.

    My other issue while doing this is that I have 2 different suppliers and my items ship from 2 different zip codes, but in the store, you can only have one zip code by default. I believe I saw a mod for it. I'll have to double-check that one.

    From the table in the first thread, to be able to implement it on the store will solve any freight rates in the U.S.A. all that is needed is a table rate chart from the shipper's zip code.

    My supplier's use

    YRC(formally YellowFreight)
    UPS
    FedEx
    FedExFreight


    Like I said, the UPS mod I'm using seem to work ok until the weight of the items get to 150 lbs.

    The YRC is what I am in desperate need of getting to work.


    Thanks
