Peak Season Surcharge (PSS) and General Rate Increases (GRI) in- gate dates of June 15th , 2024, and subsequent increase for in-gate dates of July 1st, 2024.
Carrier Announcements:
As of June 15th , all carriers have announced major adjustments:
PSS (Peak Season Surcharge): This surcharge is implemented during peak shipping seasons to account for increased demand and operational costs.
GRI (General Rate Increase): Carriers have raised their base freight rates.
The final projection for PSS and GRI varies between carriers and still there is a change for last minute mitigations.
For the time being, GRI and PSS per container estimated between $1500 - $2200 USD.
It’s likely that these adjustments will continue with another wave on July 1st, 2024
Omnitrans is proactively negotiating with core carriers on capacity and rate mitigations for its customers.
