Save up to 26% off shipping with FedEx Advantage for MCAA Members.

The MCAA announced earlier this year that it had teamed up with FedEx to help boost our member’s bottom lines by offering reliable and cost-effective shipping. To date, we have 35 member companies signed up and reaping the benefits of joining the program. During this last quarter (July — September) those member companies shipped a total of 485 packages and saved a combined total of $1,776.52 off the regular FedEx shipping rates. By participating in this program, many of these companies will discover that their annual FedEx savings will ultimately exceed the cost of their renewal dues in the MCAA.

As a member of the MCAA, your company is eligible to take advantage of the following discounts on select FedEx shipping services:
  • Up to 26% on FedEx Priority Overnight® and FedEx Standard Overnight® envelopes

  • Up to 20% on FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx Standard Overnight, FedEx 2Day® and FedEx Express Saver® packs and packages, and FedEx International Priority® and FedEx International Economy® shipments

  • Up to 12% on FedEx Ground® and FedEx Home Delivery® shipments, depending on the weight of the package

  • Additional savings on FedEx Freight® and FedEx National LTLSM services
There are no costs to join or maintenance fees and best of all is there’s no minimum shipping requirement!

I invite you sign up and start saving today by going to our webpage at www.masoncontractors.org/fedex and clicking on the red MCAA member’s link to login, receive your passcode, and complete the enrollment online. If you have any additional questions or would like to sign up over the phone, feel free to call 800-636-2377.
