🚚📦 SEPTEMBER 1 SHIPPING UPDATE 📦🚚
If you’ve mailed a letter recently, you know it’s now 82 cents just to mail a letter. Add a citrus peeler and it’s now $5. An 8.5 x 5.5 x 1.75″ box is $13.95…which holds nothing! Shipping costs everywhere have risen repeatedly—USPS alone has implemented more than a dozen shipping price increases or temporary surcharges in the past six years. In the last 4 years, Tupperware has had none.
All that to say, that we have an unavoidable shipping rate increase taking place on September 1st. But it’s the reality of the rising costs. Fuel costs are up, and USPS, FedEx and UPS are all increasing their costs, and it unfortunately has to be passed on. Let’s be honest…no one likes this. Not the customers, not the salesforce, and not even the company. Are we going to spend our energy complaining about it? I sure hope not!
Negativity feeds negativity — and that’s not what this team is about! 🏆
Here’s what I want us to remember:
Our customers aren’t just paying to have a box delivered. The good thing is this: We offer a product that saves people money. I love to use the word INVEST, when I’m talking about Tupperware. When customers INVEST in our product they can save TIME, MONEY and WASTE. They’re investing in quality products designed to make life easier and last for YEARS! 💗
So let’s NOT apologize for shipping or make it bigger than it needs to be.
Instead, let’s get SMART about it!
📦 Encourage customers to bundle their orders
🎉 Use it as another reason to BOOK A PARTY or organize a GROUP ORDERContinue to encourage Home PARTIES. In many cases, they can have the product shipped to the host and share the cost. On a $500 party with 10 guests, that would be $7.99 each. With a $1000 party with 15 guests, it’s $8.66 each
💰 Help customers take advantage of specials and get the MOST VALUE from every order
💗 Keep sharing WHY you love, use and believe in these products!
People pay shipping every single day for things they want and value.
Our job is to make them WANT the Tupperware! 🙌
And this is IMPORTANT: OUR ATTITUDE BECOMES OUR CUSTOMERS’ ATTITUDE!
Let me repeat that! Our attitude passes down to our customers.
If we act like shipping is a huge problem, they will too.
If we confidently focus on the PRODUCTS, VALUE and SOLUTIONS, that’s what they’ll focus on!
We can’t control every change…
BUT WE CAN CONTROL HOW WE RESPOND TO IT! 💪🏆
Watch your Sales Force email today for all the details. The new shipping rates take effect September 1, 2026.
Let’s keep SELLING, SHARING & SERVING! 💗
Thank you for all you do, Legacy! 🏆
