Where to find the shipping settings in WooCommerce?

If your WooCommerce hair store has been designed and set up by somebody else, you might wonder where you can find the shipping options. To find them go to the back end of the hair store and go to:

WooCommerce>Settings

Here you will find several settings that help you to make the WooCommerce store fit for your online hair business. Under general for example you can remove the number of decimals. This will show all your prices in round figures, so $ 120 instead of 120,12. This makes the hair look cheaper because there are less number to see, right?
Next to info about sales tax, payments method and much more, you will also find the shipping options for your WooCommerce hair store.

Add local pickup point

The local pickup point must be added to a shipping zone. You edit the existing shipping zone of your country or region. Now you can select one of the three options, flat rate, free shipping, or local pickup point.
Select Local Pickup point, now you can also select if sales tax is charged, and any cost associated to the local pick up.

By the way, you can also change the name from Local Pick Up into Local Delivery for example.

WooCommerce uses the standard order flow when the local pickup shipping method has been selected. This means, your client receives the same order confirmation email for the hair she bought whether local pickup or flat rate shipping has been selected. You might want to change this.

Google My Business

With the pickup point operational, you can also start using Google My Business for local business! A great way to tell the world about your hair business.

An Extra service

Now you can offer an extra service to your clients, a local pick-up point for your WooCommerce hair store!
