Fed Ex, UPS, or USPS for your business' shipping needs??
 

I need to pick a carrier, to pick up packages and ship them out, almost daily, mostly under 4 pounds a package.

Which would you choose for your business? and why?

USPS or fedex

fuck UPS, they suck SO bad

domestic, international, or both?

any particular reason?

usps

both domestic and international.

yup same here. fed ex for big packages and usps for small.

the guys at ups are assholes, they always want to open up your package and make sure its packed right.

fuck all of the above, DHL is the only carrier i trust w/ my unmentionables..

DHL for international if you primarily ship to the most 'common' countries

UPS for domestic + Canada

USPS = slow & no tracking, use only if you are looking for cheapest option (must be used for P.O. boxes anyway though)

they don't even get our sig anymore when they deliver....they just leave it on the doorstep

they are fucked

DHL?

unmentionables?

FedEx is the most reliable. UPS is good for large packages.

Forget the US Postal Service. They are the most unreliable.

If your process is automated (i.e. you just have some monkeys slap shipping labels on boxes and they sit by the dock waiting for $whomever to pick it up) go USPS. You can get some good deals, and they tend to be the most consistantly reliable shipper I've ever used (and we ship quite a bunch of crap around the country). However, they are not good at "custom" in terms of varying pickup times, some days you have stuff, some days not, etc. You can also get "pretty good" tracking w/ USPS.

Otherwise use Fedex, which is more expensive and has other problems but we use them a lot. They deal MUCH better which "custom" stuff, custom pickups, last minute shipments, etc. Their tracking is the best by far of all the companies, but their drivers can be lazy assholes. Luck of the draw on the latter though.

UPS I stopped even considering after their drivers did "drive by's" here a couple times. Meaning they SAY they attempted to deliver a package, but never happened to you know.. show up at the door, or leave a note, or anything. After 3 or 4 times of that happening we simply said fuck 'em.

Fed Ex i prefer.

Yes, indeed. I prefer FedEx as well.

Same here, can't even count the number of packages I've had delivered to me that they didn't get a signature for.

i'm satisfied with the services of fedex . .

for that amount I would go with USPS and for anything heavier go with fed ex...

DHL rocks! :thumbsup :thumbsup

I never use the USPS for anything important anymore. Many many fuckups over the years. Especially with Express Mail.

I agree UPS sucks donkey balls. That shouldn't even be a option.

Fedex is great for shipping drugs

this is why you should use fedex

I always use FedEx... they're excellent! USPS doesn't provide tracking.

i've used them all extensively.

fedex is the only way to go - fuck the rest.

What are you shipping? If it's adult videos/DVDs type material, avoid USPS -- it's Federal.

UPS won't open it unless it's going through Customs, then will reject it if it's anything dealing with adult. Each package is automatically insured up to $100 and for a buck, you can have a signature required which helps in chargeback issues.

FedEx is good but more expensive.

I suggest you use DHL

DHL bought airborne express so the service is no excellent for the same rock bottom prices

Fed Ex bought UPS last week.

The name of the new company is Fed Up.

I use DHL (dhl.com) for my mainstream business! :thumbsup
It's very cheap from 9,99$ and very fast !
