We break down your carrier agreement, benchmark your rates, and help you negotiate smarter terms that match how you actually ship.
FedEx and UPS contracts are built to benefit the carriers—and unless you’ve negotiated a custom agreement with insight into your own shipping profile, chances are you’re overpaying. TARS helps you break down the complexity of your current agreement, understand the hidden costs buried in your rate tables, and prepare for smarter, more strategic contract negotiations.
We start with a full analysis of your existing contract and actual shipping data. Our team maps out how your current rates align with your usage—factoring in zone distribution, package weight, dimensional pricing, surcharges, minimum charges, and accessorials. Then we benchmark your rates against industry averages and custom-fit pricing we’ve helped secure for companies with similar volume and profile.
TARS also models “what if” scenarios so you can see how different discounts or fee reductions would impact your costs. We equip you with a clear strategy and specific rate targets, whether you’re renegotiating a renewal, switching carriers, or just exploring your options. If needed, we can also support or lead the negotiation process on your behalf.
Our insights don’t just highlight where you’re losing money—they give you the data-backed leverage to fix it. Most businesses go into carrier negotiations blind. With TARS, you go in prepared.
Whether you ship $100K a year or $10 million, small changes in rate structure can lead to massive savings over time. And unlike the carriers, we work in your best interest.
