Fuel Surcharges
Vermont Rail System fuel surcharges are issued and made effective solely for the purpose of offsetting fuel increase costs. Our fuel surcharges only apply to VRS issued quotes and rate publications. Fuel surcharges apply for the month of the effective date of the waybill.
To calculate your fuel surcharge based on @ 9020-B take the total mileage of your shipment, multiply by the highlighted per mile rate, and add the highlighted flat rate.
To calculate your surcharge based on # 9019-F take the freight rate you’ve been quoted and multiply by the percentage highlighted.
