FedEx & UPS Bill Auditing – Recover Hidden Costs and Optimize Your Shipping Expenses

Shipping costs can quickly add up, especially when dealing with high-volume shipments through carriers like FedEx and UPS. Many businesses unknowingly overpay due to billing errors, incorrect surcharges, and unclaimed refunds. Without proper oversight, these hidden costs can significantly impact your bottom line.

That’s where FedEx and UPS bill auditing comes in. At Betachon Freight Audit, we specialize in recovering overcharges, identifying cost-saving opportunities, and ensuring accurate shipping invoices. Our expert audit process helps businesses maximize their savings while improving overall shipping efficiency.

What Is FedEx & UPS Bill Auditing?

Bill auditing is the process of analyzing shipping invoices to identify billing errors, discrepancies, and refund opportunities. Carriers like FedEx and UPS often make mistakes, charging businesses for services not rendered, incorrect weight classifications, duplicate shipments, or late deliveries.

A thorough bill audit helps:

  • Recover lost money from overcharges.
  • Ensure accurate shipping costs on every invoice.
  • Hold carriers accountable for service guarantees.
  • Optimize shipping operations to reduce future costs.

Many businesses assume that their shipping invoices are accurate. However, studies show that 5-10% of shipping invoices contain errors, leading to unnecessary costs. Betachon Freight Audit helps businesses uncover these errors and claim the refunds they deserve.

Common FedEx & UPS Billing Errors We Identify

FedEx and UPS invoices contain hundreds of different charges and surcharges, making it easy for mistakes to slip through. Our auditing services focus on:

  1. Late Deliveries & Service Failures

Both FedEx and UPS offer money-back guarantees on late shipments. However, many businesses don’t realize they can claim refunds for delayed deliveries.

Our audit team monitors delivery performance and files claims automatically for shipments that don’t meet carrier guarantees.

  1. Incorrect Dimensional Weight Charges

Carriers calculate shipping rates based on dimensional weight (DIM weight) rather than actual weight. If package dimensions are recorded incorrectly, businesses end up paying more than necessary.

We ensure that:
✅ Your packages are billed at the correct DIM weight.
✅ Oversized package surcharges are not applied incorrectly.
✅ Refunds are requested for miscalculated charges.

  1. Duplicate or Unauthorized Charges

Some invoices may contain duplicate charges for the same shipment or additional fees that were not originally agreed upon. These errors can significantly inflate your shipping costs.

We carefully review every invoice to detect and dispute duplicate or unauthorized charges, helping businesses avoid paying extra.

  1. Fuel Surcharge Errors

FedEx and UPS apply fuel surcharges based on fluctuating fuel costs. However, incorrect calculations or outdated rates may lead to overcharges.

Our system tracks carrier fuel surcharge rates in real-time to ensure that you’re not overpaying due to miscalculations.

  1. Residential vs. Commercial Delivery Fees

FedEx and UPS apply higher rates for residential deliveries. In some cases, shipments that qualify for commercial rates may be incorrectly categorized, leading to inflated costs.

Our audit process ensures that your business is charged the correct rate for each shipment.

  1. Accessorial Fees and Hidden Surcharges

FedEx and UPS impose various accessorial fees for services like:

  • Address corrections
  • Saturday deliveries
  • Delivery area surcharges
  • Additional handling fees

Many of these fees are unnecessary or can be negotiated and reduced. We analyze every charge to identify excessive fees and help lower your overall shipping expenses.
