    Default Shipping module that only calculates by weight and zone (size of parcel not needed)

    I have a contract with my postal company that means I have certain rates for certain zones of the country. My shipping rates are only based on weight and where they are going, not by size.

    Is there a shipping module I can use where I can enter the zones and prices and it can calculate the cost based on the weight of the order and not based on the actual size?

    For example:

    I have a parcel going to 1234 post code and it can calculate the price depending on the cart weight.

    $x.xx <500g
    $x.xx <1kg
    $x.xx <2kg etc.

    I found the zones option under shipping but is there a way to have more than three zones?

    If you are using Zone Rates zones ... you can edit the file:
    /includes/modules/shipping/zones.php

    and read the text inside on how to set it for additional Zone definitions ...

    It will explain to you the setting for:
    Code:
          // CUSTOMIZE THIS SETTING FOR THE NUMBER OF ZONES NEEDED
          $this->num_zones = 3;

    If you have to think ... you haven't been zenned ...
