Earlier this week, Memphis-based global freight transportation and logistics services provider FedEx rolled out new peak surcharges and fees for its U.S. domestic services. “Demand surcharges are determined for each market based on regular assessments of shipment volume and network capacity. FedEx said that the Demand Residential Delivery Charges apply to only enterprise shippers that are shipping more than 20,000 U.S. domestic residential and FedEx Ground Economy packages during a calculation week. Each week, the company said it calculates customers’ residential and FedEx Ground Economy shipment volume, with the resulting surcharge applied two weeks later. It added that the surcharge is added on top of the standard Residential Delivery Charge, with any negotiated discounts or caps on the standard Residential Delivery Charge not applying to this additional fee.
