Exactly. In WooCommerce you enter your product dimensions and weight. The shipping plugin app grabs that and based on the number of items in the cart calculates the box needed, then the shipping cost based on commercial rates fetched from Stamps.com (widely known shipping firm with 500k+ customers).

So the question is who has the best plug-in that is easiest to use. Because the one I have stinks.
