Fuel Surcharge

The Fuel Surcharge is an index-based surcharge that is adjusted weekly. Changes to the surcharge will be effective on the Monday of each week and will be posted the Wednesday prior to the adjustment. The Fuel Surcharge is assessed on the net package rate plus applicable transportation-related charges.

The surcharge is based on the U.S. West Coast Average On-Highway Diesel Fuel Price as reported by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) for the week that is one week prior to the adjustment, rounded to the nearest cent. For example, the surcharge for the week of January 17, 2022, will be based on the U.S. West Coast Average On-Highway Diesel Fuel Price for the week of January 10, 2022. If the diesel fuel pricing information released by the EIA is delayed, OnTrac may use released diesel fuel pricing information from an earlier week.
