Tariff 100, Item 700, Fuel Surcharge
The price of fuel is a big factor in the cost of moving shipments. When
fuel prices are high, YRC applies a fuel surcharge, a percent of the net
charges as shown on the bill.
Ground Shipments Fuel Surcharge
We adjust the ground shipments surcharge on Wednesdays, based on
the U.S.
National Average Fuel Index of the previous Monday. The
fuel index, published by the Energy Information
Administration of the U.S. Department of Energy, is
available by telephone at 202-586-6966 or on the
department's Internet
site: U.S.
National Average Fuel Index.
The surcharge, a component of the net charge, is based on the following table. The line highlighted with dark blue in
the table gives the fuel surcharge, which is updated
Tuesday night and effective on Wednesdays.
Click here to view fuel prices greater than 312 cents through 500 cents. You may also
view surcharge history for the
current and previous years.

Truckload (TL) = total weight of shipment > 20,000 lb or shipments on which
Exclusive Use (Item 470), Cubic Capacity (Item 575) or Capacity Load (Item 390) apply.
|
|
For each one-cent increment (or portion thereof), over 500.0 cents, the LTL fuel surcharge will increase an additional 0.1 percentage point.
The TL fuel surcharge will be 2x the respective LTL fuel surcharge rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent.
Example: If the U.S. National Average Diesel Fuel Index is between 532.0 and 533.0, the LTL fuel surcharge would be 44.1 percent,
and the TL fuel surcharge would be 88.2 percent (44.1 * 2).

When the U.S. National Average Fuel Index equals or exceeds $4.99 per gallon, the LTL Standard Ground, Definite
Delivery, and Exact Express fuel surcharge will increase an additional 0.1 percentage point. The TL fuel surcharge will
be 1.5x the respective LTL fuel surcharge rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent. For each one cent decrease (or
portion thereof), below 200.0 cents, the LTL fuel surcharge will decrease by 0.1 percentage point. The TL fuel surcharge
will be 1.5x the respective LTL fuel surcharge rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent.
EXAMPLE: If the U.S. National Average Diesel Fuel Index is between 532.0 and 533.0 and the LTL fuel surcharge 44.1% the TL fuel
surcharge would be 66.2% (44.1 * 1.5). |
