Fuel Surcharge
Fuel Surcharge Policy: USA
Effective January 1, 2008, Action Secure Shredding will be implementing an indexed fuel surcharge for all Action Secure Shredding automatic and purge document destruction services.
We have resisted implementing any additional surcharges. As a result, we have absorbed many increased costs, including increases in fuel costs, on behalf of our customers. However, with the current cost of fuel we are unable to continue to fully absorb this cost.
The surcharge will be a flat-rate incremental charge applied to the invoice subtotal based on the invoice bands below. The surcharge will appear at the bottom of each invoice as a separate line item.
The fuel surcharge will be updated monthly and is indexed to the following source:
National U.S. Department of Energy, National Average On-Highway Diesel Fuel Prices
Fuel surcharges are subject to change without prior written notice. The duration and amount of any surcharge will be determined at our sole discretion. By tendering your document destruction to Action Secure Shredding, you agree to pay the surcharges, as determined by Action Secure Shredding.
