Parcel Shipments for Vendors

How to Ship Parcel 

 

• Carrier Compliance:

  • FedEx is the only authorized Charter small parcel provider. UPS is not an approved small parcel provider. Any UPS small parcel invoices will be rejected, and redirected to the pickup location

  • Appropriate authorization by Charter is required to ship FedEx Express. Unauthorized Express package invoice will be rejected and charged back to the pickup location

  • If FedEx Express is requested by Charter, ship using your own FedEx small parcel account#. You may include the small parcel charges in the product invoice

  • Charter’s transportation providers cannot create labels or ship small parcel for vendors

  • Suppliers must enter required purchase order information in the reference field when creating the FedEx shipment. Non-compliance with entering the PO into the reference field may result in nonpayment
     

   

• Restrictions
   

  • Maximum weight on a single piece is 150 lbs

  • No pallets
