Deutsche Post AG (DPW.XE) said Monday that its DHL Freight unit
would apply a surcharge during its peak season between September to
December 2019.
DHL Freight will apply a surcharge of average 4% to all
full-truckload, part-truckload and less-than-truckload deliveries
in Europe, the German postal company said.
The move should enable the road freight-service provider to
offer the highest-quality service even as demand outpaces capacity,
it added. DHL Freight has also launched a driver-recruitment
initiative to manage growing capacity constraints, it said.
