Bedgear's $0.98 shipping surcharge to affect retailers
Bedgear will apply a temporary global shipping surcharge of $0.98 per unit to retail partners from November 4, 2026. The surcharge will be reviewed quarterly.
According to a report by Bedding News Now, Bedgear has announced that it will apply a temporary Global Shipping Surcharge of $0.98 per unit on product shipments to its retail partners.
The surcharge applies to orders received on or after November 4, 2026. Orders received before this date will continue to be fulfilled under current terms.
The company will show the surcharge as a separate line item on invoices, with the aim of providing transparency in billing.
Bedgear's Deputy Chief Strategy Officer said that rising fuel, carrier and transportation costs made this measure necessary. The company also stated that the surcharge is intended only to partially offset increases in transportation costs and that it does not aim to generate profit.
Bedgear will review the surcharge quarterly against actual transportation costs. The company stated that the surcharge will be reduced or removed entirely as costs improve.
