Price levels or stairs?

I am looking for a term naming a list of prices or cost, like in a post office, which increase when the weights of parcels increase. Something sounds like price stairs.
Thanks.

Thanks a lot for your suggestion.

Tariff is something like Tax, right?
Anyway, the prices I mentioned could be prices for anything, which are arranged in ascending or descending order, just like stairs.
I would like the term contains the word of price and conveys the feeling of the order.

Thanks.
