Choosing a shipping method for sending products to Shopify Fulfillment Network

You can send your products to SFN using Small Parcel or Freight shipping. Small Parcel shipments use carriers such as UPS or FedEx to transport individually packed boxes. Freight shipments use freight forwarders to transport a collection of boxes on pallets or in shipping containers.

If you're not sure whether to use Small Parcel or Freight shipping, then use the total weight of your shipment as a guideline. For information about which shipping method to use for different shipment weights, refer to the following table:

Total shipment weights for Small Parcel and Freight shipping

Shipping method	Total shipment weight
Small Parcel	Under 300 lbs (136 kg)
Freight	300 lbs (136 kg) or over
