Late Delivery Refunds: 71lbs’ automated system monitors FedEx and UPS shipping accounts for late deliveries and service failures. If an overnight, ground or international shipment is delivered late — even by 60 seconds — you are entitled to a full refund. The claims process is typically manual, cumbersome and inefficient. 71lbs audits and claims these refunds for you.
Lost & Damaged Refunds: You are entitled to receive a refund for your lost or damaged shipments. With the company’s Lost & Damaged services, you will be provided with a list of potential tracking numbers we have identified as either lost or damaged, and file and fight these claims for you. You can track the entire process and verify the refunds on your 71lbs account.
Parcel Protection: Protecting your merchandise in the most cost-effective way possible is extremely important when running your shipping operation. 71lbs offers Shipping Insurance at a 25%+ savings compared to the carrier’s declared value program, and it is true insurance, so you no longer have to prove carriers’ negligence.
Shipping Discounts: Your carrier sales reps are giving you discounts left and right. You think you’ve struck gold. However, upon further analysis, most of the zones with higher discounts you rarely ship to. 71lbs leverages the shipping volume of our thousands of customers to bring you shipping discounts that are beneficial and unique to your shipping activity.
Carrier Contract Negotiations: Companies leave money on the table when negotiating their agreements with their carriers. As your Shipping Advocate, 71lbs works with and educates your team on best practices, and makes sure your carriers are being held accountable to your agreement.
