IMPORTANT: Surcharge Fee
Dear Valued Customer,
We are writing to inform you of an important update regarding the ongoing changes in global trade conditions and their impact on steel and aluminum prices.
Two separate 10% tariffs on imports from China have been in effect since February 4, 2025, and February 25, 2025, respectively. Effective March 4, 2025, a new 25% tariff has been implemented on all imported Mexican and Canadian goods. To date, Safe Fleet has not passed along these additional costs.
As you may be aware, another set of tariffs on all steel and aluminum imports are scheduled to go into effect March 12, 2025. These latest tariff-related price increases are again beyond our control, and we have exhausted all options to limit their impact.
Effective with orders placed March 12, 2025, we will be implementing surcharges on all orders for Roll·Rite®, Pulltarps® & Vango™ products. These surcharges are calculated based on the latest tariff levels and will be:
• 2.5% on Roll·Rite® Product.
• 2.5% on Pulltarps® Product.
• 3% on Vango™ Products.
We understand the impact this may have on your operations and want to assure you that we are committed to maintaining the highest level of service and quality. Our goal is to minimize disruptions and continue to support your business needs.
We greatly appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we navigate these changes together. Should you have any questions or need further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service team:
