For domestic shipping, shipping charges are usually determined based on the destination’s region or country.
You can set different shipping rates based on the weight of the package.
The shipping cost can be a fixed rate per weight bracket or dynamically calculated based on various factors such as distance, carrier, or package dimensions.
Here’s an example of a potential domestic shipping rate structure.
