Residential surcharges are applied to FedEx and UPS services and typically cost about $4.00. However, USPS does not charge residential surcharges. To find out more about residential surcharges and how to avoid paying them, we have compiled this blog post.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What is deemed a residential address?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Residential addresses are not just home addresses or apartments.

Below are the minimum charges for residential surcharges. They can increase based on additional factors.

The rates are based on the service type used. The rates listed below are based on retail rates. For more information on how UPS charges for different types of fees and surcharges, read their <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ups.com\/assets\/resources\/media\/en_US\/retail_rates.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">retail rate guide<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UPS Service<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Residential Surcharge Rate<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UPS Ground<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">$4.45<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UPS AIr<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">$5.00<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Does USPS have a residential surcharge?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The USPS does not charge differently based on whether or not the address is residential. Because the postal service commits to delivering to all US addresses daily, there is not any attributed residential surcharge. However, heavier parcels tend to be more expensive with the USPS than with other carriers.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">How can I avoid paying residential surcharges?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Residential surcharges are part of using FedEx and UPS. However, there are ways to avoid paying them in full. Whether you use USPS, a hybrid service, or have negotiated rates, it is possible to avoid paying residential surcharges.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Use USPS or hybrid services<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The USPS doesn\u2019t charge residential surcharges when it delivers, so try and use a hybrid service like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ups.com\/us\/en\/help-center\/tracking-support\/sp-definition.page\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UPS SurePost<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ups.com\/us\/en\/supplychain\/solutions\/mail-innovations.page\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UPS Mail Innovations<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fedex.com\/us\/developer\/downloads\/pdf\/FedEx_SmartPost_Guide.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">FedEx Ground Economy<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Get negotiated or discounted rates<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One way to avoid residential surcharges is to get negotiated rates. A commonly negotiated rate structure involves having fuel and residential surcharges discounted or removed. The only downside to this is that this usually is a volume-based negotiation. Another way to pay less on residential surcharges is to use ShipStation for your UPS shipments. Our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shipstation.com\/ups\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">discounted UPS rates<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> commonly reduce or remove residential surcharges on UPS ground parcels.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shipping to a residential address may result in a residential surcharge.
