</details>

<details>

<summary>Q: What is a Shipping Cost Adjustment? </summary>

A: Mail carriers such as USPS and UPS may audit shipments and apply a cost adjustment, or shipping surcharge, to account for added transportation expenses. These surcharges are passed directly from the mail carrier and are typically received within 30-60 days after shipment. Any surcharges applied to your account can be viewed within your District wallet.

Shipping surcharges typically occur when a shipping label’s weight/dimensions/service doesn’t match the package as shipped. In order to avoid these adjustments, weigh and measure the packed package before purchasing your label and round up both weight and dimensions (example: 4.1 oz should be entered as 5 oz; 10.1 inches should be entered as 11 inches). Also select the correct service and packaging (example: do not use USPS Priority Mail packaging with a USPS Ground Advantage label).

</details>

<details>

<summary>Q: Can I dispute a Shipping Cost Adjustment? </summary>

A: If you think these adjustments are incorrect, you can open a dispute with USPS by visiting <https://apvdisputes.usps.com/> or with UPS by opening the shipment in your Fulfillment tab and using the "File Dispute" button near the bottom of the shipment modal.
