UPS defends higher peak surcharges ahead of shorter holiday season

UPS is increasing peak season surcharges for 2024 due to a shorter holiday shipping window and anticipated record volumes on December 18. The surcharges, higher than previous years, start September 29 and vary by package type and date, aiming to manage the increased costs of handling the surge in shipments during this condensed period.
