What is a Delivery Labor Fee?

A Delivery Labor Fee is a charge imposed by carriers or logistics providers for labor services associated with the delivery of goods. This fee covers the cost of personnel required to unload the cargo, carry it to the delivery location, and potentially assist with unpacking or installation, depending on the terms of the delivery service.  

 

The delivery labor fee is typically separate from the basic freight charges and may be applicable for specific delivery services or special handling requirements. For instance, for large or heavy items that require additional manpower to handle, such as furniture or appliances, a delivery labor fee may be applied.
