5. Case Weight Control: If you often ship heavy cases or packages, look here for savings. Bigger is better to a point, namely, 70 pounds. From one to 70 pounds, rates generally increase 1 to 4 percent per pound. At 71 pounds rates jump 45 percent locally but increases become less pronounced in zones farther away from the shipping origin. If possible, set a policy against single cases weighing more than 70 pounds. One caveat: If there are many heavy cases going to the same consignee, hundredweight pricing will apply and costs will decrease.
