The cost of fuel is really cuuting into the bottom line these days along with the increase in acytlyne as well , so I took a chnce and started adding a fuel surcharge of 10% to the invoice. So far I have had only one client question the increase but he is always a cheap sob anyway so I don't give him much mind. Whish I would of thought of it sooner.

Going hair striaght back!!!

All your freight companies are doing it. They add it in separate. Probably best, no one will thing you have raised the rates. (unless you're contract) Keeps it fair for you anyways. Good luck. S.W.
