Reduce Avoidable Parcel Fees: Payment, Pickup & Address
Key answer: Start an avoidable-fee review with late payments, recurring pickup charges and address corrections. Confirm why each fee was billed, assign ownership of the underlying process, and measure the net benefit of any change. A valid recurring fee is not automatically an error.
