The price of fuel has increased by more than 30% over the last several years. The increase in cost has become so significant to providing and maintaining our service standards that we are implementing a fuel surcharge.
The fuel surcharge is a fluctuating percentage that rises and falls based on the average fuel rates reported weekly by the State of California. Reported each Tuesday, the OnTrac rate will be updated on our website and effective for the following Monday through Saturday. The link below will list the average pump price for gasoline in California.

For every 5¢ change in price, there will be a .5% change in the fuel surcharge. The table below shows the price for regular unleaded gasoline from the website above and the amount of the fuel surcharge. Our fuel surcharge decreased on February 1, 2008. The table below shows the current rate.
