NEGOTIATION

10 Clauses Quietly Costing You 20%+

NEGOTIATION

A parcel contract can show impressive discounts yet still cost far more than it should. The biggest savings leaks often hide in minimum charges, DIM rules, fuel treatment, surcharge tables, refund waivers, and restrictive commitment language—not the headline rate discount. ShipTrim reviews these overlooked terms against your actual shipment profile to identify where your agreement may be quietly giving savings back.
