The Pallet Network, an alliance of 119 regional delivery firms, is introducing a per-pallet surcharge for all tail-lift deliveries as of 1 August 2021, to protect driver safety, service levels and partner profitability. The surcharge follows the RHA Tail-lift and Pallet Truck Guidance Document published in May. TPN MD Mark Kendall says: "The UK pallet networks are being asked to do more tail-lift deliveries, particularly to residential addresses, than ever before, but the sector has never addressed the price implications of this. Our commitment is to our partners' success in terms of service, safety and profitability and so it is incumbent upon us to take the lead." |
