Disable/ Remove “Estimate Shipping and Tax” Magento 1.9
We can solve this issue two way.
First way :
Create local.xml file with below code and upload your theme layout folder
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″ ?>
<layout>
<checkout_cart_index>
<reference name=”content”>
<block name=”checkout.cart”>
<remove name=”checkout.cart.shipping”/>
</block>
</reference>
</checkout_cart_index>
</layout>
Second way :
Remove the following code from /app/design/frontend/yourtheme/layout/checkout.xml
<block type=”checkout/cart_shipping” name=”checkout.cart.shipping” as=”shipping” template=”checkout/cart/shipping.phtml”/>
