At Ramblin Express, we appreciate your business and the opportunity to bring you first class ground transportation services at competitive rates. Like most companies, we are faced with the volatility of fuel and energy related costs, which we have addressed effectively through a Fuel & Energy Surcharge Sliding Scale.
Fuel & Energy Surcharges, calculated as a pure Percentage of the rates charged, do not always coincide exactly with our actual fuel cost increases. This is due to the many factors involved in each particular service trip, including the actual price charged, the type of vehicle used, the miles travelled (as well as the locations and regions travelled to), and also the timing of our actual fuel purchases. Even so, Ramblin Express believes that the Percentage method is the best and most accurate way of assessing these increases, across the variety of services and diverse vehicle types we offer. Further, the Percentage method is relatively easy to understand and calculate, and has been widely accepted by our customers since we implemented this Surcharge in 2003.
