How to Add a WooCommerce Fee Based on Shipping Class and Item Quantity?

This code snippet will help you to assign a shipping cost to the specified shipping class items. Also, it calculates the fee amount based on the total quantity and adds a shipping fee with the text “Big Package Shipping Fee.”

// Add a fee based on shipping class and cart item quantity
add_action( 'woocommerce_cart_calculate_fees', 'ts_shipping_class_and_item_quantity_fee', 10, 1 ); 
function ts_shipping_class_and_item_quantity_fee( $cart ) {

    ## -------------- YOUR SETTINGS BELOW ------------ ##
    $shipping_class = 'heavy-items'; // Targeted Shipping class slug
    $base_fee_rate  = 70; // Base rate for the fee
    ## ----------------------------------------------- ##

    $total_quantity = 0; // Initializing

    // Loop through cart items
    foreach( $cart->get_cart() as $cart_item ) {
        // Get the instance of the WC_Product Object
        $product = $cart_item['data'];

        // Check for product shipping class
        if( $product->get_shipping_class() == $shipping_class ) {
            $total_quantity += $cart_item['quantity']; // Add item quantity
        }
    }

    if ( $total_quantity > 0 ) {
        $fee_text   = __('Big Package Shipping Fee', 'woocommerce');
        $fee_amount = $base_fee_rate * $total_quantity; // Calculate fee amount

        // Add the fee
        $cart->add_fee( $fee_text, $fee_amount );
    }
}

Output

When a customer adds products with the shipping class ‘heavy-items’ to their cart, the code calculates a special shipping fee based on the total quantity of these items. For each item in the ‘heavy-items’ class, a base fee of $70 is applied. And, if you have, for example, 3 ‘heavy-items’ in your cart, a special shipping fee of $210 will be charged for those items.
