Shipping Restrictions for Magento 2

Limiting Certain Shipping Methods of Carriers

Typical shipping methods that most carriers propose include the land, air, sea shipment, and some more.

The Magento 2 module allows limiting only unnecessary options instead of blocking all of them. For short-life products, you may limit ground mail methods because it often takes more than a week to deliver.

The shipping restrictions functionality enhances admins to set or cancel restrictions right from the grid for every single case.

Shipping Restrictions on Product Attributes

The extension also allows limiting shipping depending on product attributes.

Merchants surely want to prevent any risks, that's why limited, high-value goods or premium brands' items require high-qualitative shipping methods such as FedEx.

The appropriate shipping method allows them to provide the proper delivery to any customer’s location.

Effective Management in Accordance With Shipping Location

Arrange the destinations of shipping and appoint restriction rules to the whole area at once. Certain shipping methods will be visible and ready-to-use, depending on shipping info.

The Magento 2 Restrict Shipping locations extension provides flexible settings for including/excluding:

• shipping country
• specific state/ region or province
• postcode
