About the time that diesel fuel reached $1.75 +/-, many trucking companies instituted a Fuel Surcharge whereby the charged the customer a percentage of their freight cost to cover the increased cost of fuel needed to carry their goods. When diesel topped the $3.00 mark, at least one carrier was charging the customer 18% more to cover the high cost of fuel.
Any reputable carrier will give the person paying for the fuel, 100% of all the FSC collected. The same is true for a expedited fleet owner. The owner should give all of the FSC to the driver if the driver pays the fuel bill.

Customer pays the surcharge without regard to the truck type picking up the freight, diesel or gasoline
