It includes days DCL is open and shipping during the holidays, plus noted are the associated fees that may be incurred on certain days for peak season fulfillment.
Demand Shipping Surcharges
Many major carriers are implementing demand surcharges, formerly known as peak surcharges, for the 2024 holiday season. These surcharges have very complex structures, so we are simplifying them to make them easier to calculate.
For all demand surcharges, DCL Logistics is either passing them through as is or absorbing some or all of the costs.
We've aggregated and organized the public peak surcharges for popular services here - View Peak Surcharges.
You can reference each carrier site for more comprehensive information: USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL eCommerce.
