Delivery Surcharges

Is anyone charging insurance companies a "Surcharge"? charges? Some of the suppliers are charging a surcharge for delivering parts. Just curious how others are handling this additional fee!

Re: Delivery Surcharges

our flat glass has just risen from around 6 pecent to 17 percent, they predict it not to go down until possibly the third quarter of this year. i am not holding my breath.

the autoglass side is charging around 3 bucks per piece, i can't see any way of not paying those charges. just sitting here taking it is a slow death but i don't see to many alternatives.

i have started adding those charges on the bills i am running through neon, but i haven't seen the results yet.

Re: Delivery Surcharges

I have been charging a 5% fuel surcharge and a $40 mobile charge (nags code SMB 00500 for the mobile) and I have been getting paid on the mobile charge and sometimes on the fuel charge from safelite and also a few times from state farm, not consistant but I will continue to put both of these charges on my invoices and hope for the best

Re: Delivery Surcharges

do you get authorization approval on the charges ?

Re: Delivery Surcharges

I PUT SMB 00500 IN MY POS AND IT COMES UP NO SUCH PART ?

Re: Delivery Surcharges

I have never requested approval for delivery or fuel surcharges. When State Farm asks me for a bottom line bid I add in those charges and they send me a check direct, they do not ask for a break down. With Safelite as I think I stated they will not pay the fuel charge but are paying the mobile charge. Maybe they think it is the lesser of the two evils? I dont know but it has been working for me.

Re: Delivery Surcharges

Do you have to get approval from SGC for the mobile fee or do you just put it on your bill?
The only company I have ever charged a mobile fee to was Globe Amerada (years ago), which is now Gerber.
Thank you for your responses! Always learn something new in the industry!

Re: Delivery Surcharges

Re: Delivery Surcharges

CONCERNED, IT IS IN NAGS SOFTWARE (GLASSMATE), AND TO Bob, the only way to be direct with state farm is to not be on metrix!
