Small parcel shipping often seems simple, but many businesses overlook costs that quietly add up and are hidden. Without all of the right tools these costs are most certainly impossible for one to track and they aren’t always that easy for one to spot on your carrier invoice.

1. Surcharges Add Up Fast

Carriers do apply extra fees for fuel surcharges and for Saturday service. Residential delivery as well as address corrections also incur these charges. These charges can vary based on location, carrier, or season. Without visibility, your shipping budget can quickly get out of control.

2. Inefficient Routing and Carrier Selection

If you do choose the wrong carrier or service level for a shipment, this choice can cost you more and deliver it slower. Businesses often fail to shop rates in real time leading to needless costs and failed deliveries.

3. Manual Processes Waste Time and Money

Manual entry of shipping, labeling, and tracking data is time-consuming and increases the risk of operational errors. Manual data entry causes a consumption of valuable time. All of which cost you money—mistakes can lead to reshipments, delays, and also customer dissatisfaction.

4. Lack of Data Visibility

It is hard for one to recognize patterns or opportunities for saving, without there being centralized reporting across all of the carriers and shipments. Without analytics, you can't negotiate better rates or spot supply chain inefficiencies. So, business gains are blocked by scarce analytics.
