Have you been frustrated about all the different accessorial charges the carriers might add to your shipping costs?
One of many fees (accessorial charge) the carrier might bill you for is called an address correction charge.
If the carrier has to figure out the delivery address, you will probably be charged an address correction fee. Currently, domestic carriers charge $17 per box, not per shipment. Two of the most common errors I have seen are incorrect zip code and missing suite or apartment.
One example is from a company who received an order from a Fortune 500 company. The order totaled 56 boxes. The buyer gave the wrong zip code and the seller did not check. They were charged an address correction charge for each box.
So, how do you reduce or eliminate this? Schedule a call today to explore some options based on your business profile and needs.
