I've answered this spread out among multiple different posts. I've attached a link that boils it down fairly simple and is a short read. Please read it. It's a pretty good layman's explanation.

OlDawg Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago If I were in the trucking business, I think I would make sure I had a fuel surcharge clause in my contracts. Just me though. Quote

Then, the dirty harmonics from the diesel generators powering the chargers fries the electronics on the big rigs, and we're now running a shortage of Macks. Of course, Mack trucks are actually owned by Volvo, and we've made the Swedes angry somehow, so they'll be upping the prices. We could hire more truckers to help offset some cost. But, they can't speak or read English. Reagan 1 Quote

OlDawg Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago 35 minutes ago, Boyz N Da Hood said: Our rates are definitely bout to go up! 🇺🇲 Better marketing to add a surcharge clause. Grab a blank contract template from one of the big boys. I’m sure they have the clause in their contracts. Just copy it, and add it to your contracts. Then, you can tell your customers you’re holding prices, but you have to add the surcharge because of current fuel costs. Easier on you and contract negotiations, and makes you seem like you’re willing to be helpful when most are in a bind. But, you still maintain your profit margin, and may even come out ahead without ‘raising prices’ if you set the surcharge with enough of a margin. Again…just me. Quote
