Restrict Shipping Options for Single Product?

[Gerry Bostock]

First of all, I can't thank you all enough for the mutual assistance offered here. I'm very grateful for all that I've learned here over the last year or so. Awesome group of people! ^5 !

 

I've searched this site with many different search string combinations, but can't find what I need. I suspect it's a simple thing to implement, but I'm only a PHP novice and need some direction, please.

 

I sell sodium hydroxide on my website. It can only be shipped within the lower 48 states, and only via UPS ground. As I'm sure you're all aware, no matter how often or how simply you explain a situation like this in your product listing, the customer will invariably choose an inappropriate shipping option. Therefore, to save my sanity and go the extra mile for my customers, I need to limit their options when they purchase this product.

 

Therefore, what code needs to be changed so that:

 

1) when a customer has sodium hydroxide in their cart, they can only choose UPS ground as a shipping option?

 

and 2) when a customer chooses to add sodium hydroxide to their cart, it must be shipped to the US only (but not Alaska or Hawaii)?

 

I would be ever grateful and will gladly contribute $$$ to the community in return...

Any clues? Someone must've run into this problem before. ?

Yep, might have, but didn't:
