headache---UPS 150lb weight limit

[rich00693]

I have a problem and spend 1 year cannot find the answer
our products were heavy, and 2 or 3 items will over the UPS weight limit.
the UPS people can not give me the solution,
the quesiton is :
How can I ship total weight over 150lb with UPS. is any shopping cart can do that?

set the tar weight to 125 and pass UPS the actual weight, They will then quote you two boxes. (at least that's what I have found to be the case).

You need to setup your Admin->Configure->Shipping/Packaging

Enter the Maximum Package Weight you will ship
(this will split up to your number of "boxes". Each item in your catalog MUST be under this weight - or could cause issues...
UPS will accept a MAX of 150lbs PER BOX - but anything over I think 75lbs is alot more$--I put 60lbs normally)

Package Tare weight.
(amount of weight added to each of the above "boxes" to account for wieght of box and packaging)

Larger packages - percentage increase.
(optional - to cover extra handling.)
