Parcel & Freight Shipping FAQ

Lojistic is a parcel freight auditing company that audits UPS invoices, FedEx invoices as well as many other carriers. There are billing errors and services failures on each carrier's weekly small parcel delivery invoice. Our parcel auditing solutions will ensure each shipping bill is accurate.

Our software and team of professional parcel freight auditors conduct a 46-point audit of each individual shipment that appears on your carrier invoice. Each audit point is a potential source of carrier billing errors and thus a potential source of carrier refunds. Several of the most common carrier billing errors are related to late deliveries, erroneous address correction charges, erroneous residential delivery charges, packages manifested but not shipped, erroneous dimensional weight charges, duplicate charges, erroneous delivery area surcharges, and packages with no proof of delivery. There are numerous carrier service failures and billing mistakes that occur on virtually every invoice for small parcel shipping. It is an essential part of risk management to monitor each package and every charge that appears on your carrier invoices.

It is very simple, quick, and easy to implement a trial of our parcel audit. We like to compare the implementation of our parcel auditing service to that of turning on a light switch. The process is not invasive to current operations and is very easy for your accounting team to incorporate into their current processes. Once you have authorized us to begin auditing your company's small parcel invoices, a copy of each shipping invoice is all we need to begin generating immediate cost savings on your freight and parcel shipments. The team at Lojistic provides the technology and resources to enable your company to stop overpaying your freight and small parcel carriers.

Once our team has begun to audit your weekly small parcel invoices, there is literally no time required on your part to facilitate our ongoing parcel audit work. Each week we will provide several reports. One of those reports will detail credits applied to your account that week, which occurred as a direct result of our parcel freight auditing service. Your company can continue to pay your carriers with the assurance that Lojistic is eliminating all invalid freight and small parcel shipping charges.

All small parcel carrier service levels, including both air services and ground services, are guaranteed to be delivered by a certain date and time. Some companies agree to waive their right to late delivery refunds. Often times a general service refund waiver or money back guarantee waiver is sold into a shipping contract by the small parcel carrier in 'exchange' for an additional incentive or discount somewhere else in the contract. Lojistic highly discourages waiving your right to late delivery refunds by signing these types of shipping contracts, and contends that virtually any incentive or discount offered by UPS or FedEx with a waiver can also be offered without a waiver. In the event there is a service refund waiver in your contract, we are still able to audit your parcel freight invoices. Late deliveries and service failures are merely one of forty-six things that our freight auditors look for on each carrier invoice.
