FedEx One Rate options offer express, flat-rate shipping options without the customary accessorial charges like residential delivery and fuel surcharges. One Rate shipments still qualify for all the typical services that you would expect from FedEx as a premium carrier including full visibility and tracking through FedEx.com, money-back guarantee* and insurance up to $100 that you can actually use.
Elevate clients have the option of using FedEx packaging or providing their own depending on their needs. If the product will fit in the FedEx packaging it would be a great option, otherwise the savings in using One Rate vs other two day options significantly offset the cost of packaging.
