I want to disable USPS on the frontend if a product's length is over 12" (the max size USPS box we use).
I understand there is an extension, Amasty Shipping Restrictions that gets high praise, but this is much more complex than I require.
Is there a straightforward way to program this into my checkout rules?
I set up a solution that iterates through each item in a customer's cart, check's each item's height attribute, then if any item is over a given length, it raises the flag(s) for whatever shipping method can't ship something that length, and hides the shipping method(s) from the customer's view.
I configured this solution to work for USPS (max length 12", limited by the largest box our store offers), UPS (max length 108" per UPS Ground website), and FedEx (max length 165" per FedEx website).
To reiterate, if any one item is over the maximum length, then that shipping method is disabled for the entire cart. I injected this logic check into the "View Cart" and "Onepage Checkout" pages to hide any unavailable shipping methods dynamically.

Take a look at http://projectamplify.com/insight/remove-magento-shipping-methods-if-free-shipping-available/
In
app/ design/ frontend/ default/ YOURTEMPLATE/ template/ checkout/ onepage/ shipping_method/ available.phtml
You could check your quote items to see if any of these products exist, if so remove shipping method (or create an observer for item add/remove and update a custom added field in sales_flat_quote then check the value of this field)
unset($_shippingRateGroups["usps"]);
Also take a look at http://inchoo.net/magento/how-to-hide-shipping-method-on-magento-frontend-but-leave-it-on-in-admin-area/
You can try Mconnect Shipping Restriction Magento 2 Module as it allows you to create a variety of shipping rules using various limitation criteria based on customers, shopping cart, and product attributes.
Recently I needed to do something similar. In Magento 2 if you extend the shipping class (\Magento\Shipping\Model\Shipping) in an extension, you can access attributes using the method explained in this answer: Magento 2 make product attribute available in QuoteItem
Magento 2.2 docs on building a component for reference: http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.2/extension-dev-guide/build/build.html
I have same requirement, Restrict shipping method by product attribute (Sku). I did it with plugin,using below code.

</type>
</config>
=> /app/code/{{vendor}}/{{module}}/Plugin/RestrictshippingPlugin.php
<?php
namespace {{vendor}}\{{module}}\Plugin;
class RestrictshippingPlugin
{
/**

protected $checkoutSession;
/**

public function __construct(
\Magento\Checkout\Model\Session $checkoutSession
) {
$this->checkoutSession = $checkoutSession;
}
/**

*/
public function afterEstimateByExtendedAddress(\Magento\Quote\Api\ShipmentEstimationInterface $subject, $methods)
{
$items = $this->checkoutSession->getQuote()->getAllVisibleItems();
foreach($methods as $key => &$method) {
if($method->getMethodCode() == 'testshipping') /* replace method code here */
{
if($this->_checkMethodByProduct())
{
unset($methods[$key]);
}
}
}
return $methods;
}
private function _checkMethodByProduct()
{
$items = $this->checkoutSession->getQuote()->getAllVisibleItems();
$renderMethod = false;
foreach($items as $item)
{
if($item->getSku() == "productsku") // check sku for restrict shipping method
{
$renderMethod = true;
break;
}
}
return $renderMethod;
}
}
