Additional handling

Additional handling


"Additional handling" typically refers to an extra service or surcharge applied by the shipping carrier for packages that require special handling beyond the standard procedures. This additional handling may be necessary due to factors such as irregular size or shape, excessive weight, fragility, or specific packaging requirements.
The surcharge compensates the carrier for the added time, effort, and resources needed to process and transport these parcels safely and efficiently.
