Smart Parcel Packing Options

Cut unnecessary shipping costs and streamline your order fulfillment with flexible Canada Post parcel packing methods.

Each option is designed to handle different product types and order combinations with maximum accuracy.

Pack into one box by weight: A default live rates calculation method. The weight of all ordered products is summed up, and they are treated as shipped together in a single package. This simple approach works best for smaller or lighter orders.
Pack items separately: Each product is considered as if shipped in its own box. The plugin uses each item’s weight and dimensions to calculate volume and return shipping rates. This method ensures accurate pricing when products vary greatly in size, weight, or require separate handling.
PRO Pack into custom boxes (volume packing): Choose from standard Canada Post packaging or define your own custom box dimensions. Products are packed based on their total volume, which allows you to optimize space usage and reduce shipping expenses while keeping parcels safe in transit.
PRO Pack into custom boxes (3D bin packing): An advanced algorithm that places products into boxes according to their exact dimensions, not just volume. It analyzes the best fit for each item, minimizing wasted space and reducing the total number of parcels shipped. Perfect for orders with mixed product sizes or complex packaging needs.
