Grocery delivery company Instacart has joined Uber and Lyft in adding a temporary fuel surcharge to customers’ orders to help cover the skyrocketing gas prices its drivers are paying.
In a blogpost on Friday, Instacart wrote: “We’re implementing a temporary surcharge on customer orders to help offset the increased cost of gas over the next month.”
It added: “This surcharge will add an additional $.40 on customer orders across our marketplace, with a clear indication of the fuel surcharge on the batch before you accept it.”
