Multiple packages from a single order? Suggestions?

Currently have both UPS & FedEx (basic) shipping modules setup. Many of my products are large (oversize) and heavy (overweight, *if* bundled together), so I'm looking for a method of passing multiple package weights or dimensions to the mods for shipping calculation.

 

For example, I have 1 product that totals 75# (1bundle - 60#ea. approx. 6"W x 24"H x 55" and some minor stuff that fits in their small shipping boxes). For example, the FedEx module calculates shipping to CA @ $78... except it costs me $120! I can break it into multiple packages, but have no way to pass those parameters, other than max out the weight (150#) for that product. The only issue comes when the actual product weight is 150# total and their cutoff for regular ground shipping is 150#ea... I have no way to make sure the charges cover the total.

 

Suggestions?

 

TIA!

UPS XML with dimensional support. I believe it allows for marking items as "Ready to ship" so they will never be grouped with other products.

Do, or do not. There is no try.

I have all the items in our store selected as "Ready to Ship" using the UPSXML module, however, if I add more than one package, at the shipping screen UPSXML still shows it as 1 pkg but adds up the weight still. Shouldn't it show something other than 1 pkg?!
