Shipping to Australia amidst the Coronavirus Pandemic

Since Coronavirus forced border shutdowns from earlier in the year JustShip has seen a rise in shipments – our customers requests range from returns and repairs to care packages for relatives stranded overseas. With a higher volume of international shipping requests, our customer’s top concern is pricing. Shipping internationally has become more expensive. Cue Emergency Situation Surcharge (ESS), a new pricing tier that was recently introduced by shipping tycoons DHL and FedEx.

What is ESS?

ESS is a temporary price adjustment introduced by shipping customers DHL and FedEx in order to cover the higher cost of operations incurred during this sensitive period.

Here’s the breakdown on the prices for shipments out of Singapore.
