Calculating shipping when the sale has multiple boxes

Can anyone tell me how to enter the shipping when a sale has more than one box.  All the boxes weigh the same and are the same size.    I will be using calculated shipping based on buyers location.

 

Thanks in advance

Calculating shipping when the sale has multiple boxes

The system does not handle this well.  Use the calculator to find the difference between 1 box of the entire weight and 1 of the 5 that will be equal weight.  Use the farthest location shown by the calculator.

 

Take 5 x the single box and subtract the 1 box of the full weight to find the difference, or the extra that you need to charge for it being 5 boxes.  Enter that amount as a handling charge and let the system calculate the single box of the full weight.  You might charge the buyer slightly too much, but you can always send a little refund if it is enough to matter.
