FedEx Express package and freight
standard list rates will increase an average of 6.9%-7.9% for U.S
These charges can add up quickly. Here?s are potential charges
for a one-pound package shipped to a residential address in 2023:
FedEx
Freight Rate Effective Jan. 2, 2023
The increase is set to take effect on Jan. 3, 2022, and will
apply to all US domestic, US export and US import services. FedEx Ground, which
delivers to businesses, and FedEx home delivery will increase by an average of 6.9%.
FedEx Freight customers could see an increase of up to 7.9%. The 6.9% average increase is nothing more than an average, so
shippers using a 6.9% increase when planning for operational budgeting next
year may be in for a rude awakening. Their actual impact could be much
higher, especially for ecommerce businesses that are shipping
primarily to residential destinations.

do to COVID-19*
Service Impact of COVID-19 June 10, 2020, 10:00 AM
CT FedEx? is an
essential business. Due to the crucial role
we play in moving supply chains and delivering critical relief, FedEx is
considered an essential business. We will continue to operate under
state-of-emergency and shelter-in-place orders recently issued in the U.S. These restrictions are
disrupting the global supply chain. Air cargo capacity is limited, and we?ve
had to make adjustments so that our international networks can best deliver
much-needed goods and services in this constrained environment. The impact of COVID-19 is
causing local, state, and national governments around the world to issue work
and travel restrictions on a daily basis, which is impacting our ability to
meet our high standards of service. As a result, we have made the decision to
suspend our money-back guarantee for all FedEx Express?, FedEx Ground?, FedEx Freight?, and FedEx Office
services effective immediately until further notice. Because FedEx is an
essential transportation service provider, we will continue operating as
government restrictions and regulations allow.
Last Updated: June 10,
2020 Signature suspension notification To help promote the safety of our employees
and customers, FedEx signature guidelines are being temporarily adjusted for
all shipments within the United States, with the exception of adult signature
required (ASR) shipments. In efforts to minimize physical interactions,
customers may be asked to verify recipient name in lieu of a physical
signature. FedEx is still collecting recipient information; therefore,
surcharges for these services will continue to be assessed. For shipments with
the adult signature service option selected, couriers will still request a
physical signature and require a government-issued photo ID. The safety and well-being of our 475,000 team
members is our top priority as they continue to deliver critical goods and
services to support communities across the globe. As we continue to support the global supply chain, we are
committed to following all the recommended practices for keeping our customers
and team members safe. We are keeping our workforce informed about COVID-19,
providing them with the proper personal protective equipment and informing them
of the importance of social distancing, a clean workspace and careful personal
hygiene.

Dimensional Weight Effective Jan. 2, 2017, the
dimensional weight calculation for FedEx Express? and FedEx Ground?
packages will change. Dimensional weight for all shipments within the U.S. and
FedEx Express shipments between the U.S. and Puerto Rico will be calculated by multiplying the length by
width by height of each package in inches and dividing the total by 139. Previously, dimensional weight for all shipments within the U.S. and
FedEx Express shipments between the U.S. and Puerto Rico was calculated by
dividing the total by 166. If
the chargeable weight of a FedEx Ground package exceeds 150 lbs., a prorated
per-pound rate will be used. FedEx Ground applies dimensional weight to all
shipments. Dimensions of
one-half inch or greater are rounded up to the next whole number; dimensions
less than one-half inch are rounded down. The final calculation is rounded up
to the next whole pound. Why are my shipping rates changing?
For a shipping company, the cost of

Shipping Changes effective 1.1.2015**
FedEx and UPS (and all major shipping carriers) announced their
plans to begin calculating shipping rates using dimensional weight effective
January 1, 2015. This change will have a measurable increase in the rates you
will be charged to ship items. In an effort
to encourage efficient packing, carriers will now use "dimensional
weight" to help determine the most accurate shipping cost for a package.
Dimensional weight is different from actual weight, and is more representative
of the amount of truck space a package actually occupies.
The dimensional weight of a package
can be calculated by measuring its dimensions in inches (length, width, height)
and plugging them in to the following formula: (Length x Width x Height)/166 = Dimensional Weight* (in
pounds) *Note the "dimensional
factor" of 166 is currently used by UPS & FedEx but is subject to
change.
Once calculated, an item's
dimensional weight is compared to the actual weight. The higher weight will be
the weight FedEx and UPS uses to calculate shipping for
the package. Note this is the dimension of the box a product will
typically ship in, not the product itself. Please be aware the dimensional
weight of a product is most accurate when shipping single-item packages, but
cannot accurately predict the dimensional weight of multiple items that ship
together, nor can it account for packing material or free accessories included.
Smokin-it continues to offer the best
shipping option for our products through FedEx and UPS. We continue to recycle, pack your purchases to
protect the items from damage and follow FedEx and UPS standards for shipping. Please keep in mind our smokers
are over sized and heavy.
