Temporary Fuel Surcharge Update

On 1st of April 2026, we introduced a temporary fuel surcharge. The surcharge is based on the current retail / pump price of diesel and is calculated per cubic metre for ReadyMix and per pallet for Masonry and Dricon products.  

As of 13 July 2026, Firth removed the Fuel Surcharge for certain products and orders based on location. Should retail / pump prices of diesel increase again, Firth reserves the right to review and reinstate a Fuel Surcharge.

Current Fuel Surcharges are:

  • No surcharge for ReadyMix products, Masonry products and North Island Dricon orders.
  • $12.90 per pallet for South Island Dricon orders.

 

All Temporary Fuel Surcharges will

  • Be applied as a separate line on invoices.
  • Be reviewed monthly by Firth, with changes to apply from the 1st of the relevant month.
