How do I add a surcharge to shipping?

[TylerWolf]

I want to add 10% to my shipping costs that come over from UPS. There are a lot of extensions but I don't really want to add and extension for something so small. Is there another way?

Hi @TylerWolf,

I believe that you can handle that surcharge with Magento out-of-the-box.

I've made some shipping modules and that kind of behavior was a custom option for those modules.

The best way to change the default result is to override the code with a module.

In shipping methods there is a handling fee. I added it in there and it just adds it on to the price which is exactly what I was looking for.

You're right (my bad). I didn't check the options of the native UPS integration.

Here's the section where we can set the handling fee for the UPS integration:

Thank you for share how you've solved this and correct me.
