Circle Delivery Service, Inc. Announces 2008 Rate Increase
Circle Delivery Service, Inc. is announcing that effective March 31, 2008 we will implement an increase on rates contained in our class tariff CDSE 500. This increase will have an overall impact of 5.4%. Some weight groups and lanes may have a higher or lower increase percentage. While we continually strive to improve efficiency, we find that we must raise our rates at this time. This rate increase will allow us to be profitable while investing in our people, increasing our security, maintaining our equipment properly, and investing in new technology.
The new rates will be available for download from our website www.circledelivery.com on or before March 31, 2008.
Due to the volatility of the price of fuel, this increase does not contain a fuel component and the fuel surcharge will remain in effect. Our fuel surcharge helps us recover the extra expense involved with fuel spikes. Our fuel surcharge is competitive and is less than the surcharge of many other LTL carriers. Please see our fuel surcharge chart which can be found at www.circledelivery.com.
As a reminder, all invoices are due on receipt and are considered past due after 30 days.
We appreciate your business and look forward to serving your transportation needs. Please give us a call at (800)251-1834 or call your local representative if you have any questions.
