UPS uses an index-based surcharge that is adjusted monthly. Changes to the surcharge will be effective the first Monday of each month and posted approximately two weeks prior to the effective date. For your billing convenience, we will also post a 90-day fuel surcharge history. The surcharge will be based on the Rotterdam Jet Fuel Prices reported by the U.S. Department of Energy for the month that is two months prior to the adjustment.
The following table illustrates the surcharge: |
