How Do I Exclude Shipping Locations in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 11:45 pm

If you’re running a WooCommerce store, you might want to exclude certain shipping locations. For example, you might not want to ship to P.O. boxes, or you might only want to ship within the United States.

Here’s how to exclude shipping locations in WooCommerce:

1. Go to WooCommerce > Settings. 2. Under the Shipping tab, select Shipping Zones. 3. Click on the zone that you want to modify. 4. Under Shipping Methods, find the method that you want to exclude locations from.

For example, if you’re excluding P. boxes, find the Free Shipping method and click Edit. 5. In the Method Settings dialog box, scroll down to the Excluded Countries field and enter the countries that you want to exclude shipping to (for example, US for United States). You can also exclude specific states, cities, or ZIP codes by entering them in the Excluded States/Provinces and Excluded ZIP/Postcodes fields (for example, NY for New York). 6. Repeat steps 4-5 for any other shipping methods that you want to exclude locations from. 7. Save your changes and you’re done!

PRO TIP: If you are using WooCommerce to sell products online, you may want to exclude certain shipping locations from your checkout. For example, you may only want to ship to addresses in the United States.

To do this, go to WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping and select the shipping zone that you want to modify. Then, click the Add Shipping Method button and select the Flat Rate shipping method.

Finally, enter a name for your shipping method and check the box next to “Restrict shipping to specific countries”. Then, select the countries that you want to ship to from the drop-down menu.

Now that you know how to exclude shipping locations in WooCommerce, you can make sure that your orders are going to the right place!
