A. Duie Pyle uses the
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Central Atlantic Average price
of a gallon of diesel fuel as the base for calculating the fuel surcharge for all
LTL shipments. For the week of
Tue 01/21/2020, the price of a gallon
of diesel fuel is
$3.291.
The LTL fuel surcharge for today is
25.10% based on this
average. The table below illustrates A. Duie Pyle's LTL fuel surcharge guidelines.
The US Dept of Energy has not posted the average diesel price for this date yet,so this fuel surcharge percentage may be inaccurate.
