With changes in fuel prices impacting the transport industry, the fuel surcharge can rise, fall, or not be applied.
The fuel surcharge is based on an estimation of Australia Post's direct costs and indirect fuel costs that relies on existing fuel prices to predict fuel costs on a forward-looking basis.
