Rate Increase and Assessorial Charges
Effective September 23, 2024, Lee Jennings Target Express will implement a rate increase of 3.5% to our base freight rate. In addition to the base rate increase, we find it necessary to add assessorial charges for certain services (listed below) which we have never applied in the past, but that our competitors have charged for years. Lee Jennings Target Express has always taken a conservative approach to rate increases, however rising operational costs require us to take this modest increase in order to offset equipment, infrastructure and technology improvements.
