How the surcharge worksFSC · 03
WHAT

A separate line, not a hidden markup

The surcharge is billed on top of your freight rate, shown as its own line on the invoice. You can always see exactly what fuel cost you on a load rather than finding it buried in the rate.

WHY

Diesel moves; your base rate shouldn't

Diesel is one of the largest costs of running a truck and it swings hard. A surcharge lets the base rate stay stable and predictable while fuel does what fuel does: up and down, both directions.

HOW

Rates start at 12%

Our schedule starts at 12% and increases by two percentage points per diesel-price band, up to 44%. Dispatch confirms the applicable surcharge in your quote before booking.
