FAQs
Is ship to store the same as in-store pickup?
No. In‑store pickup lets customers pick up items already stocked at a store. Ship to Store quotes actual shipping rates for sending products from your warehouse or fulfillment center to a store or other pickup point.
What does ShipperHQ's Ship To Store feature do?
Ship To Store feature allows merchants to offer delivery to their own store locations or third-party pickup locations for customer pickup, using live or custom-calculated shipping rates.
This helps you avoid flat rates and gives customers clear, reliable pricing at checkout.
Which carriers work with ShipperHQ's Ship To Store delivery option?
You can use any carrier that supports calculated rates, including live rate carriers like UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL, and LTL freight, as well as custom table rate carriers you configure in ShipperHQ.
Can order pickup locations include third-party networks or only my own stores?
Yes. ShipperHQ’s Ship To Store feature supports pickup locations beyond your own stores, including third‑party networks or other designated pickup points you set up in the dashboard.
Can I control which locations are available for Ship to Store versus local pickup?
Yes. You can assign specific pickup locations to your Ship To Store carrier and control when and where they appear at checkout.
For example, you might offer Ship To Store at regional warehouses & physical retail stores while limiting local pickup to your retail stores only.
How does ShipperHQ calculate shipping rates when orders ship to a pickup location?
Once you’ve added a ‘ship to store’ carrier, you can assign which carrier provides the shipping rates, whether live or table-based, and define which pickup locations it applies to.
At checkout, ShipperHQ calculates the shipping cost from your origin to the selected pickup location and displays accurate rates based on your setup and business rules.
