Do you have a fuel surcharge?
Unfortunately there are some costs we cannot control. The escalating costs of fuel and environmental compliance have had a tremendous impact on our industry. In the past, we have tried to avoid passing the fluctuating costs on to the customer. In order to be fair to all parties involved, the fuel charge will be a fluctuating percentage. As the price of fuel rises, the fuel charge has been implemented. It may fluctuate at fuel costs fluctuate.
