Effective Jan 16, 2023, FedEx will assess an additional surcharge of $3.45 per package for Additional Handling and $39.50 per package for Oversize Charges for U.S. Express Package Services, U.S. Ground Services, and International Ground Service.

On August 5, FedEx announced their annual Peak Season Surcharges, which included two different rates for Additional Handling and Oversize.

From Sept 5 – Oct 2, Additional Handling and Oversize shipments would incur a Peak Season Surcharge of $3.45 and $39.50, respectively. Effective Oct 3 and continuing until the end of peak season on Jan 15, 2023, AHS increased to $6.55 per package while the Oversize Surcharge increased to $68.75 per package.

FedEx announced that it would keep that first-tier Peak Season Surcharge in place for Additional Handling and Oversize, indefinitely, until further notice.

FedEx is adjusting the FedEx Freight Extreme Length Surcharge, effective Jan 16, 2023.

$600 per shipment, with a dimension of 12′ or greater and less than 15′.
$800 per shipment, with a dimension of 15′ or greater and less than 18′.
$1,000 per shipment, with a dimension of 18′ or greater and less than 20′.
$1,200 per shipment, with a dimension of 20′ or greater.

Other applicable rates/surcharges will still apply.

FedEx announced the creation of new zones for U.S. import and export international services peak surcharges for both parcel and freight.

Details here:

The announcement outlines 15 zones each for import and export and identifies 239 distinct counties, territories, and cities.

Note that the zones for import and export do have a couple of variations between them. For example, U.S. export surcharges to Canada are now segmented into two zones, Zone A for metro areas and Zone B for remote areas, while the whole of Canada is lumped into the single Zone A for import surcharges.

What does this mean for shippers?

Shippers can largely expect to pay the same surcharges on U.S. import/export as they are now.

However, the new zones will allow FedEx to make more granular adjustments to these rates in the future.

(Source: Shipping Rate Changes | FedEx)

The application of FedEx’s peak season surcharges and dynamic pricing adjustments is largely similar to last year’s (peaking factors, calculation weeks), with increases to the base demand surcharges from 2022.

Effective Oct 2, 2023 – Jan 14, 2024:

Demand — Additional Handling Surcharge will increase to $6.95 per package (+$0.40 from 2022)
Demand — Oversize Charge will increase to $73.00 per package (+$4.25 from 2022)
Demand — Ground Unauthorized Package Charge will increase to $410 per package (+$25 from 2022)

Demand Surcharge (Ground Economy Package Services):

Oct 30, 2023 – Nov 26, 2023: $1.60 per package (+$0.10 from 2022)
Nov 27, 2023 – Dec 10, 2023: $2.60 per package (+$0.10 from 2022)
Dec 11, 2023 – Jan 14, 2024: $1.60 per package (+$0.10 from 2022)

FedEx is also implementing a Demand Residential Delivery Charge (Express and Ground U.S. domestic residential packages excluding Ground Economy and One Rate) from Oct 30, 2023 – Jan 14, 2024, for customers shipping more than 20,000 residential and Ground Economy packages in a week.

The surcharge amount will be based on a “Peaking Factor” – the percentage increase of weekly packages shipped between the “calculation week” and the average number of weekly residential and Ground Economy packages shipped June 5, 2023 – July 2, 2023.

The Ground surcharge ranges from $1.35 – $6.35 per package (+$0.10 to $0.35 from 2022), and the Express surcharge ranges from $2.40 to $7.40 per package (+$0.15 to $0.40 from 2022).

FedEx has announced a 5.9% annual average rate increase for 2024.

Effective January 1, 2024, FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, and FedEx Home Delivery rates will increase an average of 5.9%.

FedEx Ground Economy (formerly SmartPost) will increase an amount that has yet to be specified.

FedEx Freight rates will increase by an average of 5.9% to 6.9%.

This General Rate Increase (GRI) announcement comes a few weeks ahead of FedEx’s typical (in recent years) mid-September GRI announcement. Expectations are that UPS’s rate increases will closely resemble FedEx’s, as is the trend historically. Over the past few years, UPS’s GRI announcement has followed FedEx’s, typically in late October.

FedEx will release the full rate, surcharge, and fee increase details on September 7.

Read FedEx’s announcement here: FedEx Newsroom

FedEx announces a 1.00% increase to its Ground and Express domestic fuel surcharge tables, effective this coming Monday, December 11th, 2023.

The announcement comes just a week after UPS announced, on November 29th, raising its Ground and SurePost fuel surcharge tables, a change that went into effect this past Monday, December 4th.

With this announcement, FedEx’s Ground and Express domestic fuel surcharges now exceed UPS’s.

This change means that shippers will now pay more in fuel surcharges despite lower fuel costs.

For example, on Monday, December 11, FedEx will assess a Fuel Surcharge of 16.00% based on the on-highway average price for a gallon of diesel fuel on December 4th, which was $4.092.

The previous week’s Ground surcharge of 15.00% was based on the weekly average of $4.146, meaning that on Monday, shippers will pay 1.00% more for fuel despite the weekly average dropping $0.054.

Shippers saw a similar effect when UPS’s Ground and SurePost increases went into effect. On November 27, UPS shippers were assessed a ground surcharge of 14.75%, and on December 4, shippers were assessed a 15.25% surcharge despite the the on-highway average price for a gallon of diesel fuel dropping $0.063 week-over-week ($4.209 to $4.146).

Comparing both national carriers directly, on Monday, December 11, the following surcharges will be in effect:

UPS Ground & SurePost: 15.00%
FedEx Ground: 16.00%
UPS Express Domestic: 15.75%
FedEx Express Domestic: 16.75%

As a reminder, the Fuel Surcharge is not only assessed on net package rates, but a number of other common surcharges like the residential delivery, demand, and additional handling surcharges.

FedEx has once again extended demand (formerly peak season) surcharges beyond their originally stated end date.

FedEx’s current holiday season demand surcharge for Additional Handling is $6.95 per package. Their current Oversize surcharge is $73 per package. Both fees are effective until January 14, 2024.

However, on January 15, 2024, both demand surcharges will continue “until further notice.”

Starting January 15, 2024, Additional Handling for U.S. Express Package Services, U.S. Ground Services, and International Ground Service will be $2.00 per package, and Oversize will be assessed at $20.00 per package.

Source: Demand Surcharges | FedEx

Four days after extending “demand” surcharges on Additional Handling and Oversize surcharges, FedEx has announced an increase (of nearly double) to both surcharges, effective February 5 until further notice.

Demand, Additional Handling Surcharge – $3.45 (up from $2.00)
Demand, Oversize Charge – $39.50 (up from $20.00)

To “continue providing [their] customers with the best possible service,” the carrier’s increases raise the surcharges to mirror those of last year’s extension and nearly match UPS’s demand surcharge extension that went into effect January 15.

For comparison, UPS:

Demand, Additional Handling: $3.50 per package
Demand, Large Package Surcharge: $40.00 per package

Like with the December fuel surcharge increases, we’re seeing a carrier double back on their original surcharge adjustment to increase them further within a short period of time.

Leapfrogging demand and fuel surcharge increases come at a time when both parcel demand and fuel costs are in decline.

Effective February 12, 2024, FedEx has reinstated the money-back guarantee for U.S. and Canada imports on select services to include two specialized international services for U.S. and Canada payors only:

FedEx is increasing its Ground and Express Domestic fuel surcharge tables 1.0%, effective May 6, 2024.

This follows UPS’s recent 0.5% FSC table increases to its Ground Domestic, Air Domestic, and SurePost services.

Will we see a similar, leap-frogging fuel surcharge situation as we did this past December?

You may recall this timeline of events.

UPS announced a 0.5% Ground & SurePost FSC increase effective Dec 4, 2023.
FedEx announces a 1.0% Ground *and* Express FSC increase effective Dec 11, 2023.
Two weeks after increasing its FSC, UPS then announced another Ground & SurePost FSC increase of 0.75% alongside an Express FSC increase of 1.0%, effective Dec 18, 2023.

Update: Shipware has written an overview of the USPS rate increases: USPS 2022 Price Increase & Impact on Shippers

The proposed prices, approved by the Postal Service Governors, would raise Shipping Services product prices approximately 3.1 percent for Priority Mail service, and 3.1 percent for Priority Mail Express service.

Announcement here: U.S. Postal Service Announces New Competitive Prices and Two New Mail Products for 2022

(Source: USPS.com)

The USPS has announced its proposed peak holiday season surcharges with effective dates between Oct 2 – Jan 22, 2023.

From Gordon Glazer, USPS expert (https://lnkd.in/gAQsiTwn):

“USPS released proposed peak season surcharges that frankly seem pretty reasonable compared to what FedEx has proposed.

While there are lots of numbers to look at most shippers will be concerned with “Commercial Rates” for:

Priority Mail zones 1-4 up to 10 Lbs $.25
Priority Mail zones 5-9 up to 10 Lbs $.80
Parcel Select Ground zones 1-4, up to 10 Lbs. $.25
Parcel Select Ground zones 5-9, up to 10 Lbs. $.40
First Class Package Service zones 1-4 $.25
First Class Package Service zones 5-9 $.40

Postal consolidators will induct via Parcel Select – usually at the DDU (local P.O.) for most of their packages.

The surcharge this year is $0.25 and, if inducted at the DSCF or DNDC, will be $0.75.

No surcharge this year for PSL (under a pound), USPS Connect Local and Parcel Return service.

The proposed effective dates are Oct 2 – Jan 22, 2023.”

The USPS announced a general rate increase (GRI) for shipping services to go into effect on January 22, 2023.

Here are the “Shipper Focused” Highlights:

New rates for USPS Competitive, aka “Shipping Services,” are proposed to go into effect on January 22, 2023. It will require the rubber stamp approval of the PRC.
New Returns solution: an Outbound Label creation option for $1.25.
Commercial Plus and Commercial rate charts are merging and will simply be called “Commercial.”
Splitting existing zone “L,1 & 2” to zone 1 and zone 2. In addition, Local is transitioning to “Connect Local.”
Priority Mail International: Canada is removing origination zones to a simplified single zone as just another country group – likely will not require additional pages of rates.
Non-Standard Fees (NSF): Charges for oversized packages will go up for Express services and down for Ground. Dimensional policies remain the same with the first cubic foot excluded and 166 Dim factor.
International rates for Priority and Express (PMI & PMEI) +6%, First Class Package International Service (FCPIS) + 6.5%.

For more details, read our analysis of the 2023 USPS General Rate Increase here: USPS 2023 Price Increase & Impact on Shippers

The USPS proposed new prices for mailing products to take effect on January 21, 2024. The average increase across all impacted products would be approximately 2% if approved.

Some of the announced adjustments:

Letters (1 ounce) stamped – $0.02 increase to 68 cents
Letters (metered 1 ounce) – $0.01 increase to 64 cents
Domestic postcards – $0.02 increase to 53 cents
International postcards & letters (1 ounce) – $0.05 increase to $1.55
No change to second ounce, which remains at 24 cents

According to Shipware’s USPS Specialist, Gordon Glazer, First Class Flats is an option for many lightweight mailers. Flats have been hit extra hard over the last few years, taking much larger increases than other services. Shippers are catching a break this year as rates for Retail Flats have increased only 1.6% from July and 5.5% from the USPS’s January 2023 General Rate Increase.

Also notable is that rates above 6 ounces only see a 1% increase. The USPS is readjusting rates in the heavier tiers after those took larger increases in previous GRIs.

Presorted Flat pricing is going down significantly! Automation is decreasing by 8% while non-Auto is decreasing by 5%.

Marketing Flat rates are going down an average of 4% for both Auto and Non-Auto. In this category, Flats can be up to 15.999 ounces.

Media Mail is increasing 13.3% for 1-5 Lbs., 9.9% for 6-10 Lbs., and 8% for > 11 Lbs.

Bound Printed Matter – Parcels are increasing based on workshare. Auto and CRRT Sorting to the DDU, and the increase will only be 2-4%, Sorting to NDC, and residual is increasing 11%. Non-presorted will increase by 3.2%.

Domestic Extra Services:

Certificate of Mailing +7.7%
Certified Mail +6.1%

On the heels of UPS & FedEx, OnTrac has just announced their peak season surcharges.

Part of the newly formed, transcontinental network with LaserShip, OnTrac’s peak surcharges are nearly identical to those of UPS and FedEx (especially UPS).

Effective Oct 2, 2022 to Jan 14, 2023:

Large Package Surcharge: $70.00 per package
Additional Handling Surcharge: $6.50 per package

For comparison, FedEx’s peak oversize and additional handling surcharges are $68.75 and $6.55, respectively, and UPS’s large package and additional handling surcharges are the same as OnTrac’s at $70.00 and $6.50.

For their Residential Delivery Surcharge, like UPS and FedEx, OnTrac will determine the assessed surcharge based on peaking factors.

Effective Oct 30, 2022 to Jan 14, 2023, a surcharge will apply to all residential deliveries. Surcharge amounts will vary based on the percentage of weekly peak volume by service over baseline volume (105% of baseline to 400%+ of baseline) and range from $1.25 to $6.00.

The “baseline” volume is the customer’s average weekly volume for each service level for June 2022. HOWEVER, if the customer’s average weekly volume during September 2022 was less than 80% of that of June 2022, then OnTrac, at its discretion, can use the lower weekly average volume from September to determine the baseline.

Unlike FedEx & UPS, however, no version of a 20,000 weekly average package volume threshold was noted. The surcharge will apply to all customers.

In addition, OnTrac lists a couple of caveats for shippers that have not tendered residential packages during the baseline periods.

View the 2024 rate table here: 2024 OnTrac Shipping Rates

In addition, OnTrac has announced that effective February 5, 2024, their Fuel Surcharge will adjust weekly. Currently, OnTrac’s fuel surcharge adjusts monthly.

The change from monthly to weekly brings the transcontinental carrier more in line with nationals, UPS and FedEx, and may be a way to capitalize on rising fuel prices.

(Source: Surcharges – OnTrac)

OnTrac is increasing its fuel surcharge index 1.25%, effective February 5, 2024, when OnTrac’s index-based FSC adjustments change from monthly to weekly.

The increase brings OnTrac’s fuel surcharge in line with UPS and FedEx.

Earlier this week, OnTrac posted a 0.5% fuel surcharge increase to go into effect on Feb 5, 2024, but has now raised it an additional 0.75%, aligning with the nationals.

(Source: Surcharges – OnTrac)

OnTrac will increase their Fuel Surcharge Index, effective May 27.

Following UPS’s lead, which recently increased its Ground Domestic, Air Domestic, and SurePost fuel surcharge table, OnTrac will also increase its FSC by 0.5%.

(Source: Surcharges – OnTrac)

This is OnTrac’s second Fuel Surcharge Table increase since February 5, 2024 when the carrier increased the FSC 1.25% while simultaneously changing their index-based FSC adjustments from monthly to weekly.
