West Coast Fuel Surcharge

The whole load must seat within the 11 state region

 

No, the load only has to originate in CA, OR, WA, NV or AZ. I've always been paid the WCS on all my loads out those states.

Now if you pick up a tcall, it defaults to where the load actually originated at. Pick up a load that came out of Mexico and there will be no WCS

Unless Central is on a different FSC program, there's been no WCS for the past 2 weeks.

 

Sorry to interrupt...but has Central been merged into Swift? I heard (read about) rumors of one of the SLC terminals being purchased by Prime and can't find any info anywhere. Just asking first hand folks instead of going on rumor mill gossip.

 

If the load qualifies for West Coast fuel it's listed on a separate line from the regular fuel rebate.
Swift O/Os get a weekly message stating that week's fuel rebate AND west coast if there is any.

 

Swift now owns Central. I thought it was only the refrigerated division but judging from the Central dry van trailers clogging up the PHX terminal I suspect it's the whole shebang.

 

Ohh, I have picked up in ca and del in Houston and not gotten the wcs. Was told that it had to originate and end within the region
