FedEx Freight, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp., announced the upcoming launch of FedEx Freight Advance Notice, a new service feature that will provide customers with greater visibility and control

of their less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments.
FedEx Freight Advance Notice will use the company's technology systems to proactively notify FedEx Freight customers via the Internet and fax on the rare occasion that a shipment may be delayed beyond its estimated delivery date. This free communication will allow registered customers to make decisions and adjustments while a shipment is still en route, avoiding problems before they occur or minimizing impact.
FedEx Freight operates a highly-engineered network, invests in strategically-located service centers, and consistently shortens transit times between points across the United States. Over 90% of FedEx Freight shipments deliver in one or two business days. FedEx Freight also offers a no-fee money-back guarantee for eligible shipments based on scheduled delivery dates.
FedEx Freight Advance Notice will be available on Sept. 13, 2005, free of charge to all registered "My Account" users on the FedEx Freight password-protected web site who ship within the contiguous United States.
FedEx Freight Advance Notice will apply to most direct shipments handled by FedEx Freight, but will not include FedEx Freight international shipments. FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, or FedEx Kinko's shipments are not included.
