• FedEx announced they will again not apply additional residential surcharges for the 2019 Holiday season.  They will have peak surcharges to shipments that qualify as over-sized, unauthorized or require additional handling.

• StarShip utilizes FedEx web services so those surcharges will automatically be reflected in our rate quote as a part of the total quote provided.

• UPS announced they will also not apply additional residential U.S. surcharges. They will have additional peak surcharges for contractual exceptions, large packages, over maximum limits or additional handling packages.

• USPS has no peak surcharges for the Holiday season but they do have a Holiday Page  to purchase stamps, ship from home and shipping tips.
