Multi-Box Shipping

Ship large or fragile items across multiple boxes. Perfect for furniture, collectible sets, or any items that require separate packaging.

How It Works

1. Enable Multi-Box

Toggle "Multi-Box Shipping" in the shipping section when creating your listing.

2. Calculate Total Shipping

Set your shipping cost to cover all boxes. Buyers see one total shipping price.

3. Ship All Packages

Generate multiple shipping labels through Shippo and track all boxes together.

Unified Tracking

All tracking numbers are linked to a single order for easy management.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the buyer pay separate shipping for each box?

No. Buyers pay one total shipping cost that you set. It's your responsibility to calculate the combined shipping cost for all boxes when creating the listing.

How do I generate multiple shipping labels?

Use our ShipStation integration to create multiple labels for a single order. Each label will have its own tracking number, and all numbers will be visible to the buyer on their order page.

What if one box arrives damaged?

Our standard buyer protection applies. If any part of the shipment arrives damaged, the buyer can file a claim. We recommend purchasing shipping insurance for high-value items.
