Invoice explanation

  • Your order number: Your shipment number.

  • Actual chargeable weight: The actual freight-bearing weight is based on the dimensions and the weight the carrier receives when it checks weighs your goods at the terminal.

Costs

  • Transport cost: The basic cost that each carrier charges for shipping. Included in the Sendify price.
  • Fuel surcharge: Supplement for fuel. The cost varies depending on current fuel prices and is included in the Sendify price. The supplement is calculated as a percentage of the transport cost.
  • Delivery To Residential Area / Housing: UPS provides deliveries to both home addresses and workplaces. A home delivery is a delivery that goes to a home, including to companies that are based in the home. If you book "to a private person" in Sendify, the fee is included, otherwise it may be added afterwards.
  • High season fee - Extra handling: During periods of extremely high volumes and high demand, UPS must prepare and staff extra, therefore they charge a higher fee during certain specific periods. The fee is included in the Sendify price.
  • Extra UPS Handling Fee: Cylindrical packaging, goods packed in metal / wooden boxes, large packages. Extra handling can mean many different things but is included in the Sendify price. Note that it may be added afterwards if you send a larger item than booked or pack your item incorrectly.
  • Odd City: Obtaining service to and from less populated or hard-to-reach domestic and international areas entails higher operating costs. The cost is included in the Sendify price.
