WooCommerce: Hide “Shipping to…” Address @ Cart

Even when the “shipping calculator” is disabled on the WooCommerce Cart page, a “Shipping to…” string will appear in the cart totals if an address has been previously entered or if geolocation is enabled.

Most WooCommerce store owners, however, wish to remove / hide this text, as it can be confusing for the customer. In this quick tutorial, we’ll study two different workarounds to achieve the same result. Enjoy!

The two alternative snippets below will hide the “Shipping to…” text string that displays below the shipping rates in the WooCommerce Cart totals section

PHP Snippet: Remove “Shipping to…” Text @ WooCommerce Cart Page

There is no WooCommerce hook that can modify the “Shipping to…” string, so we need to find a workaround. One option is to translate the “Shipping to…” string into an empty string.

/**

 */

add_filter( 'gettext', 'bbloomer_translate_shippingto', 9999, 3 );
  
function bbloomer_translate_shippingto( $translated, $untranslated, $domain ) {
	if ( ! is_admin() && 'woocommerce' === $domain ) {
		switch ( $translated ) {
			case 'Shipping to %s.':
				$translated = '';
				break;
		}
	}   
	return $translated;
}

You can read more about the “gettext” filter and WooCommerce string translation here on Business Bloomer. If this fails, there is another option, which is once again not ideal but it’ll get the job done.

Where to add custom code?

You should place PHP snippets at the bottom of your child theme functions.php file and CSS at the bottom of its style.css file. Make sure you know what you are doing when editing such files - if you need more guidance, please take a look at my guide "Should I Add Custom Code Via WP Editor, FTP or Code Snippets?" and my video tutorial "Where to Place WooCommerce Customization?"

Does this snippet (still) work?

Please let me know in the comments if everything went as expected. I would be happy to revise the snippet if you report otherwise (please provide screenshots). I have tested this code with Storefront theme, the WooCommerce version listed above and a WordPress-friendly hosting.
