Accurate Rates for Multi-Warehouse Orders
Calculate shipping from the closest or most cost-efficient location, so you never undercharge or overcharge for shipping.
Show a merged rate. When a cart contains products shipping from different origins, ShipperHQ sums the cheapest method for each shipment into one rate. Or you can show split rates with our Enhanced Checkout.- Works with major eCommerce platforms – including Shopify (works with Multi-Origin Inventory), BigCommerce, Adobe Commerce, Magento, and Woo Commerce.
- Add and scale origins in minutes. Set new origin locations in the ShipperHQ dashboard or upload them in bulk via CSV, perfect for brands with large fulfillment networks.
Simplify Complex Shipping. Convert More Shoppers.
Give shoppers smart shipping choices that feel simple, but are powered by serious logic. Control exactly how rates appear when an order ships from multiple warehouses.
- Declutter checkout. Merge multiple shipping methods – like FedEx Ground and UPS Ground – into a single option at checkout. Give it a title like “Standard Shipping.”
- Reduce cart abandonment with competitive merged rates. Cap rates above a certain price threshold or create rules like ‘When items ship from multiple warehouses, apply 10% off shipping.’
- Provide a clear picture of delivery timelines. Show accurate dates that reflect each warehouse’s cutoff times and blackout days with Delivery Date & Time.
Handle Any Cart, No Matter How Complex
Define what ships from each location, and how. Make updates easily without code – saving hours on manual post-order fixes, developers, and support.
- Set order value thresholds for origins. Set rules like ‘Ship small orders from dropshippers and large orders from warehouses.’
- Assign products to warehouses. Define which warehouses specific products or broad product groups can ship from.
- Specify carriers and shipping methods for each warehouse.
- Surcharge or discount rates by origin, or set flexible rules like ‘When an order ships from Austin and Los Angeles, apply a $5 surcharge.’

After installing & connecting ShipperHQ to your store, you can define warehouse, dropship, or store locations. Add them directly in the ShipperHQ dashboard or upload in bulk via CSV if you’re managing a lot of locations.
2. Set your fulfillment strategy
Choose how orders ship: from the nearest origin to speed delivery, or from the fewest origins to cut costs. Add restrictions, discounts, or surcharges for specific origins. Define which carriers and services each location can use.
3. Test and launch
Test real cart scenarios, preview rates, and launch – knowing every order will route and rate correctly, according to your rules.
