The Fuel Surcharge to be applied on alfaloc services is updated weekly.
Find out here the recent evolution of each rate and its value for each week:
What is the fuel tax?
It is a tax that aims to protect the sustainability of companies in the freight transport sector in the face of fluctuations in the prices of fuels necessary for the exercise of the activity.
This fee is sometimes referred to as a “Fuel Surcharge”.
When does it apply?
It applies to all shipments from companies authorized to transport goods.
However, each company independently determines how this tax is applied and how much it is.
In alfaloc, for special services («tailor-made») such as Rocket or Sharing, the fee is already included in the price of the service presented to the Customer. For shipments considered to be small, the exact amount of the fee is shown both in the quotation and in the invoice for the service.
When are fuel rates updated?
They are updated weekly and take effect on the Monday of each week.
How is the fuel surcharge calculated?
Value of the fuel surcharge (€) = value of the service (€) x fuel surcharge of the chosen medium (%)
