COPY-READY TEMPLATE

Basic free shipping policy template

We offer free standard shipping on eligible orders over $[THRESHOLD]. Some heavy, oversized, remote-area, or special-handling products may be excluded from free shipping.

Heavy product exclusion template

Heavy or oversized products may require a separate shipping rate. If your cart includes heavy items, shipping will be calculated based on product weight, destination, and available carrier options.

Remote region surcharge template

Some remote or high-cost delivery areas may require an additional shipping surcharge. Any applicable surcharge will be shown before checkout is completed.

Pet food store template

Free shipping applies to eligible pet products over $[THRESHOLD]. Heavy items such as bulk pet food, cat litter, and multi-pack products may have separate shipping rules.

Free shipping applies to eligible pantry items over $[THRESHOLD]. Bulk, liquid, frozen, fragile, or multi-case orders may require separate shipping rates.
