FEDEX, UPS 2024 RATE INCREASES: WHAT SHIPPERS SHOULD KNOW

The variances within the carriers’ price hikes indicate what services are seeing
the most pressure from competitors, experts say.

The parcel delivery market may be swinging in shippers’ favor, but UPS and FedEx
customers will still have to contend with rate increases for 2024.

The delivery giants announced a 5.9% average rate increase on their various
shipping services that will take effect on Dec. 26 for UPS and Jan. 1 for FedEx.
It’s a smaller increase than the 6.9% bump both unveiled for 2023 as they
contend with declining demand.

FedEx and UPS have since released the full details of these rate increases and
accompanying surcharges. Parcel spend experts say the rivals unsurprisingly
mirror each other’s changes even beyond the 5.9% average.

KEY TRENDS TO WATCH IN RETAIL SUPPLY CHAINS

Rising costs and market volatility have led retailers to adapt to adversity. A
selection of stories shows how.

Read on to find out what shipment types will see the largest rate increases,
what it suggests about the carriers’ evolving strategies and how shippers can
minimize the impact of higher delivery costs.


INCREASES TARGET EXPEDITED, LONG-DISTANCE DELIVERIES

The 5.9% rate hike at FedEx and UPS is only an average. The actual increases
shippers will encounter vary depending on each delivery’s shipping
characteristics. These include:

 * Distance traveled: Shipments moved over longer distances, which the carriers
   measure by “zones”, will encounter sharper rate increases than those being
   delivered to a closer location. For FedEx, ground and air deliveries in zones
   2-4 will see an average increase of 5.91%, while those in zones 5-8 will see
   a 6.39% average increase, according to an analysis from LJM Group. UPS has
   similar discrepancies.
 * Package weight: Heavier packages will generally see greater shipping rate
   increases compared to lightweight parcels at both FedEx and UPS. For example,
   shipments weighing 1 to 5 pounds will see a rate increase of 5.5% for
   commercial ground services at both FedEx and UPS, according to a Shipware
   analysis. But packages weighing 11 pounds or more will see rates jump by at
   least 6%.
 * Service used: Packages delivered by faster shipping services will generally
   see price increases above the 5.9% average. A Shipware analysis shows rates
   for minimum charges that FedEx and UPS levy for their air cargo services
   versus slower ground transportation offerings.

OVERNIGHT SERVICES SEE THE HIGHEST RATE HIKES

FedEx service Increase to minimum charge Priority Overnight 7.88% Standard
Overnight 7.5% 2Day 5.49% Express Saver 4.47% Ground/Home Delivery 5.94% UPS
service   Next Day Air 7.91% Next Day Air Saver 7.51% 2 Day 5.48% 3 Day Select
4.52% Ground 5.94%

Source: Shipware analysis. Note: UPS’ increases take effect Dec. 26, 2023.
FedEx’s increases take effect Jan. 1, 2024.

Shippers should also consider any surcharges that apply to their shipments,
which aren’t factored into the carriers’ base rates but will also see increases
for 2024. Added fees that FedEx and UPS levy include charges for large and
oversized goods, packages that require additional handling and deliveries to
remote locations.

AFS Logistics Chief Analytics Officer Mingshu Bates said UPS is adjusting which
ZIP codes it considers rural or remote areas of the U.S., which comes with an
added delivery fee for shippers.

How UPS classifies these ZIP codes has a marked impact on a package’s shipping
cost. Delivery area surcharges for 2024 will range between $3.95 and $7.70,
while remote area surcharges will cost $14.15 in all states except for Alaska.

“If you happen to shift to one of those fortunate or unfortunate ZIP codes,
you’re going to see a huge difference,” Bates said.


FEDEX AND UPS ADJUST TO COMPETITION

The variances within rate hikes indicate what shipment types FedEx and UPS face
greater competition for.

There are plenty of alternative carriers serving specific regions that shippers
can use for shorter-distance deliveries, and these companies continue to expand
their coverage areas and capacity.

DRIVING SUPPLY CHAIN SUSTAINABILITY

Amid pressure from consumers, investors and governments, companies are
scrambling to measure and reduce the impact of their supply chains on the world.

“I think that speaks to them feeling a little bit more of a competition from
regional carriers than they’re willing to admit,” said Paul Yaussy, a senior
consultant of professional services at Shipware.

FedEx and UPS also have competition for lightweight packages that don’t require
expedited delivery, even at longer distances. Amazon Shipping is touting lower
shipping prices than what shippers can expect from the parcel delivery giants.

“We have some of our clients getting some offers from Amazon Shipping, and the
offers are pretty aggressive,” Yaussy said. “We’ve seen that their service guide
is very, very similar to those that FedEx and UPS have.”

Competition is less heated for longer-distance and heavier shipments using
expedited services, allowing FedEx and UPS to impose higher rate increases
without dissuading too many shippers. These shipments are also more expensive
for carriers pushing to reduce operating costs and increase efficiencies.


HOW SHIPPERS CAN REDUCE RATE HIKES’ STING

Despite the rate hikes, shippers are in a prime position to negotiate better
contract terms as delivery demand remains soft. Parcel carriers are offering up
more robust discounts to secure volume, benefiting customers like Macy’s and
Rent the Runway.

A key for shippers in negotiations is to make sure they understand their biggest
strengths as a customer that could lead to reduced charges, said Nicholas
Fanelli, managing director of Shippingwise.

“Do you have multiple packages shipping from the origin to the same destination
on the same day? In that case, you have a strong argument to be negotiating
certain surcharges, like the fuel surcharge or residential surcharge, because
they’re already going there,” Fanelli said.

Companies should also consider what they can adjust internally to avoid
unnecessary shipping costs, experts told Supply Chain Dive.

This could include exploring ways to put products in less bulky packaging or
splitting a large item into two individual shipments to avoid surcharges.
Shippers may also opt for less expensive ground transportation for more
time-sensitive deliveries if the destination is close enough to the shipment’s
origin.

Carriers welcome these types of adjustments from customers, as it makes their
volume easier to handle, said Kevin Miller, VP of data insights at logistics
software provider Sifted.

“[Carriers] can give you suggestions as well on how to improve your network to
help them be more efficient,” Miller said. “By doing so, it will save both
companies money.”
