1. Timing of Adjustments<\/strong>
Any request for additional fuel funds must be applied and agreed upon with the customer before you arrive for pickup. Under no circumstances should a price increase for fuel be raised at the point of delivery.
2. Customer Refund Entitlements<\/strong>
Because a fuel levy is an additional cost applied after the initial booking, customers are not obligated to accept it. If a customer does not agree to the new price, they must be allowed to cancel the job and receive a full refund. Cancellation fees will not apply to jobs cancelled due to fuel price increases.
3. Professional Conduct & Transparency<\/strong>
Expecting a customer to agree to an undisclosed price after a job is already underway is not reasonable. All price discussions must be finalised before collection. To support our providers during this period of market instability, Truckit will temporarily waive all fees on price increases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Truckit will be monitoring terminal gate fuel prices and investigating all reported violations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While our core policy remains that quotes should be all-inclusive, we recognise that rapid fluctuations in operating costs can occasionally necessitate a post-booking fuel levy. To be clear, the fundamental way you quote on Truckit isn\u2019t changing: you should still aim to incorporate all anticipated fees, charges, and overheads into your initial quote. We are simply being more tolerant of price adjustments made after a booking has occurred, provided they are strictly related to fuel costs and are handled with total transparency.
