as you will be charging a flat fee (I guess), use the flat fee shipping module renaming it appropriately in the language file.

 

Then install, select the zone of your state as the zone - you must create this zone beforehand in your admin tax zones are.

 

The 3rd step is the most complicated ... and it depends on how you can identify that city. Does it have a specific post code or a list of post codes?

 

If yes, that can be used to be added to flat.php as a final check if the zone was found to be correct for the customer.

Is there no way to just use the city name? I'll look into the postal code's, I know there are a few, but they may all start with T2. . . Will that work?

probably a combination of the two. I'd never trust a city name, knowing there is often several cities with the same name in the same state.

 

So use city name and first 2 letters of the postcode
