This was reported by the CEO of Ukrposhta, Igor Smelyansky, in his Telegram.
“For the first time in the history of Ukrposhta (and likely in Ukraine as well), we are eliminating weight-dependent tariffs. Yes — completely. Therefore, we will have 'weightless' tariffs. The tariff will depend solely on the volume, similar to what the leaders of the global market, such as FedEx and UPS, do. Note — not on dimensional weight, but only on volume,” wrote Smelyansky.
Benefits of the tariffs:
- affordability: the lowest tariff remains unchanged, while others are among the most accessible on the market. Customers can choose the optimal option: quick delivery with the 'Priority' tariff or significant savings of up to 50% or more with the 'Basic' tariff;
- convenience: fixed prices eliminate the need to weigh parcels. The cost calculation depends only on volume, not weight. For convenience, affordable boxes or free bags can be used;
- honesty: tariffs are based on the principle of transparency: eight sizes allow you to pay only for the actual volume of the shipment, not for rounded weight.
