It’s that time of year again. FedEx has announced an increase to its rates by 4.9% to 5.9% on many services, beginning January 4, 2021. And of course, Transportation Impact is hard at work analyzing the details of the announcement and will publish our annual GRI analysis shortly.
The increases will impact FedEx’s Air and International, Ground, SmartPost, and Freight customers. FedEx also announced changes and additions to almost 40 other accessorials, fees, and surcharges. Shippers need to be on the lookout for how these changes will affect delivery costs in areas like additional handling and a new 6% late-payment fee on invoices.
Stay tuned. Transportation Impact will be releasing our report soon to help small parcel shippers make sense of the FedEx announcement and understand how these rate increases will impact overall shipping costs.
