Fuel Surcharge Information

Understanding Fuel Surcharges

The source page describes fuel surcharges as index-based and adjusted monthly. It states that changes take effect on the first day of each month and that the surcharge is assessed on the net package rate plus applicable additional delivery charges.

Historical information — not a current quote

The dates and percentages in the following tables are reproduced from the supplied source, which lists 2022 and 2023 information. They have not been verified as current rates.

Additional Charges

Dalipath Delivery Company Fees

The original page lists the following charges and describes the conditions under which they may apply. The amounts below are retained from that source and should not be treated as current prices without confirmation.

Check the applicable shipping agreement

Charges can depend on the shipment, package dimensions, delivery address and the terms of the shipper's agreement. Confirm current fees with Dalipath Delivery Company before shipping.

Additional Handling

The source describes an Additional Handling Surcharge for packages requiring special handling, as determined by Dalipath Delivery Company.

Examples listed in the original source include:

  • Articles not fully encased in corrugated cardboard, including metal, wood, hard plastic, soft plastic packaging or expanded polystyrene foam.
  • Cylindrical items such as barrels, drums, pails or tires that are not fully encased in a corrugated cardboard shipping container.
  • Packages routed through the irregular-package sortation process.
  • Other packages requiring special handling.

The source also lists these dimensional or weight conditions:

  • Length: longest side exceeding 48 inches.
  • Width: second-longest side exceeding 30 inches.
  • Weight: actual weight greater than 70 pounds.

Where multiple criteria apply, the source says only one Additional Handling charge is assessed, in the order of weight, length, width and packaging. It also states that this charge is not assessed when an Over Maximum Limits Surcharge or Large Package Surcharge is applied.

*The source says irregular packages may appear on invoices as “Irregular Shape/Package” instead of “Additional Handling.”

Source-listed charge $18.50 Per package Historical source amount

Address Correction

When an address supplied to Dalipath Delivery Company is incorrect or incomplete for delivery, the source says the company may correct or complete it using information obtained from the shipper or consignee. An Address Correction Surcharge may then be applied.

Source-listed charge $19.50 Per package Historical source amount

Residential Delivery

The source describes a Residential Delivery Surcharge for deliveries to residential homes, including businesses operating from a residential home.

Source-listed charge $5.25 Per package Historical source amount

Delivery Area Surcharge

The source says Delivery Area Surcharges apply to each package delivered to certain ZIP codes within the service coverage area.

The source distinguishes between Delivery Area Surcharge (DAS) and Extended Delivery Area Surcharge (Extended DAS).

The original page references a DAS and EAS ZIP-code list, but the supplied source does not include a working download URL for that list.

Source-listed charges $5.30 DAS per package $7.15 Extended DAS per package Historical source amounts

Over Maximum Limits

The source says packages with actual weight or dimensional weight exceeding 50 pounds, as measured to determine billable weight, are not accepted for transportation. If such a package is found in the system, it may be subject to an additional charge.

The source wording should be reviewed against the current service rules before this information is used for shipping decisions.

Source-listed charge $700.00 Per package Historical source amount

Supplemental Surcharges

Additional agreement-specific charges mentioned in the source

The original page states that, unless otherwise agreed in writing, certain shipper agreements may provide for additional charges, including:

  • Residential Signature Surcharge
  • Large Package Surcharge
  • Unauthorized Surcharge
  • Surcharge for On-Call Pickup Services

The source further states that these supplemental surcharges may continue to apply when specified in a written agreement or when the shipper had been invoiced for them before March 25, 2023. The supplied source does not provide the corresponding amounts.
