FedEx/UPS Contract Negotiation & Auditing

Third-party auditors cut shipping bills 15–35% — pay only from savings.

Overview

FedEx and UPS default published rates hide 20–35% negotiable discounts, plus 3–8% of invoices contain billable errors (late delivery guarantees, address correction, dim-weight mistakes). Firms like Shipware, Reveel, Refund Retriever, and 71lbs audit your invoices weekly and negotiate carrier contracts on contingency — you pay 25–50% of recovered savings, $0 if no savings. Net 15–35% reduction on $100K+/yr shipping spend.
