Answers to your questions about rate changes

Why are there seasonal demand surcharges during the holiday shipping season?

Each year as FedEx prepares for high demand during the holiday season, we adjust our networks to best deliver for our customers. Even during challenging market conditions, we remain committed to providing the best customer service possible. To support the changes to our networks, we will implement demand surcharges.
