LTL - Fuel Surcharge

LTL Fuel Surcharge

A. Duie Pyle uses the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Average price of a gallon of diesel fuel as the base for calculating the fuel surcharge for all LTL shipments. For the week of 01/07/2009, the price of a gallon of diesel fuel is $2.596. The LTL fuel surcharge for today is 15.50%% based on this average. The table below illustrates A Duie Pyle's fuel surcharge guidelines.
