The cargo will be ship or shipped by or on the first week of December.
  

Top answer

The cargo will be shipped by the first week of December (meaning: just before the first week of December) during the first week of December (at some point between 1-7 December) You can't use 'on' to refer to a whole week. You may only use it for a single day.
