Fuel Surcharge Policy
Fuel Surcharge for 3/25/2026-3/31/2026: $5.48 / Gallon
All Deliveries: 15%
Oxford Quarry & Railyard Pickups: 7.5%
Introduction:
This Fuel Surcharge Policy is established to address fluctuations in fuel prices and to ensure fair and transparent billing practices for our customers. The surcharge is directly tied to the East Coast On-Highway Diesel Average, as published by eia.gov. This policy outlines the conditions under which a fuel surcharge will be applied, adjusted, or eliminated.
Trigger Point:
The fuel surcharge will be activated when the East Coast On-Highway Diesel Average reaches or exceeds $4.00 per gallon.
Once the trigger point is met, a baseline surcharge of 1% will be applied to the total invoiced amount.
Incremental Adjustments:
For every additional $0.10 increase in the East Coast On-Highway Diesel Average, an additional 1% surcharge will be added to the total invoiced amount per load. This incremental adjustment is cumulative and will be calculated based on the average fuel cost each month.
Pickup Customers:
Customers who pick up their own loads from our quarry or one of our railyards will be subject to half the fuel surcharge rate when the surcharge is active, as fuel is still required for transloading, railcar shipping, and production equipment.
Surcharge Elimination:
If the East Coast On-Highway Diesel Average falls below $4.00 per gallon, the fuel surcharge will be eliminated, and regular invoicing without a surcharge will resume.
Note:
Fuel surcharges will be updated weekly on Tuesday mornings when the report is given. Updated rates are effective from Wednesdays at 12:00 AM through Tuesdays at 11:59 PM each week.
Pickup Customers: Rates are based on the date you pick up your load.
Delivery Customers: Rates are based on when your load is delivered to your yard.
Thank you for your continued support and understanding
**Please note this charge will be added no matter the services or product purchases**
