How can I remove a shipping method or option?

Disable, hide or remove a shipping method (for example Media Mail or a slow or expensive service) under Settings > Shipping > Enabled methods so it is left out of Least expensive calculation and the method dropdown.

Certain shipping methods are either incompatible with your business, painfully slow, or too expensive to use. By default SKULabs only disables Library Mail and Media Mail.

How to disable or hide a shipping method

Only active shipping methods are used in the Least expensive calculation default shipping option and appear in the shipping method dropdown. To remove a method:

  1. Go to Settings > Shipping > Enabled methods.

  2. Uncheck the box in the Active column next to each method you want to exclude.

  3. Click Save.

To turn a method back on, check its Active box again and click Save. A disabled method can still show in the rates window, marked as disabled, with a tooltip that points back to this page.
