Specifying Dangerous Goods using FedEx Shipping Plugin

It is a fact that, by using WooCommerce as your online store platform you can sell any product to anyone. And if you want to ship your products using FedEx, then the WooCommerce FedEx Shipping plugin is a great choice for you. Using this plugin, you can sell both virtual (downloadable) and physical products to your buyers. By using our plugin, you can specify your packages to FedEx.

To put it simply, if you deal with items that qualify as FedEx Dangerous Goods and Hazardous Materials, the plugin lets you do that. Let us check out a scenario where one of our customers faces an issue while selecting the Dangerous goods option.

Venjemen: We got an order with a regular product and a “dangerous goods” product and got an error (all perfumes need to be only ground shipping). We had to do the FedEx shipping/pickup manually.

To select an item as Dangerous goods, you need to go to the product’s Data tab. To do that, just go to the item page and click on the Edit product option at the top portion of the screen as shown in the image below.

After going to the Product data tab, you need to scroll down and click on the Shipping option under that product. You would be able to see the following screen.

Here, just select the Dangerous Goods (FedEx) button and save the changes that you have made.

Let us check out a sample image for an item that qualifies as Dangerous goods.
