Peak is the highest-stakes stretch of the shipping year, and the one shippers under-prepare for the most. This is the playbook I wish every shipper had, in four parts, from the cost you cannot escape to the checklist you run before it starts.
Why the peak surcharge is the one increase your contract was never built to stop, and what to do about the thing you cannot negotiate away.
If the surcharge is fixed, the leverage moves to your operation. The levers that actually move your peak cost.
Peak is shorter than it feels. The calendar reality of how many shipping days you really have between Black Friday and Christmas Eve.
The operational readiness checklist to run now, in August, while there is still time to fix what you find.
Four angles on the same season: the cost, the response, the calendar, and the execution. Peak comes every year, and so does this list.
