Unisource Implements Fuel Surcharge

Paper, packaging and facilities supplies distributor Unisource Worldwide will institute a fuel surcharge due to the rising cost of diesel fuel. The company had been able to offset the fuel increase by maximizing delivery routing and truck fleet utilization.

Unisource will now institute a fuel surcharge per line item to all orders shipped from its warehouses and orders received through Unisource’s Website will receive a flat surcharge per order.

With gas prices increasing costs to every vendor that delivers, Paper.com firmly believes that paper sales on the internet will grow at an even faster pace. The site has over 40,000 items and ships the majority of orders within 24 hours.
