Which Delivery is most often late?

[NickS VR4]

Just curious, which delivery service (UPS, Fed Ex, USPS) is most often missing their estimated delivery date?

Eh, I can't do the poll. In my experience, it matters a lot where you live. UPS used to be great when I lived in downtown Dallas. They were decent when I was in FL, but now that I'm in north Dallas they are consistently late, and FedEx is always on time or even early. Turns out there's a FedEx distribution center not too far away, and the UPS one is about 30 miles away.

subscribed. i don't usually have a problem with the delivery service; it's the shippers that usually suck ass.

This is a rough one to vote on. Recently (within the past few years) I haven't had any problems with UPS unless it was due to weather. USPS is hard to say if they're late or not because whenever I am receiving packages the tracking system sucks so bad it never gives me an ETA...theeeennnn there's FedEx. They show up later in the day but I have had similar problems with them as I have with UPS. There should be a freight shipper option because I've sure as shit had problem with those companies.

DHL sucks ass. They said we weren't home for a delivery, when we specifically stayed home just for that delivery. Called them and the driver had to apologize about lying... he "just didn't have time to come out to our rural area". I know why I never ever see their trucks around any more. They used to be all over the place.

UPS got delayed when the floods happened last year (in Tenn), which is totally expected. USPS sucks ass, you only can track their packages the day you receive it/it arrives are your post office and out for delivery. FedEX pretty much shows up on time as well as UPS.

75% of the time I ship USPS because there isn't any close UPS or FedEX drop off locations. And if I "schedule a pick-up" it usually takes a week before they pick it up. We don't ship FedEx ever, the closest drop off location is 50 miles away *in another podunk town*, and the drivers won't take the packages if you hunt them down around town.

25% of the time we will ship with UPS. The closest staffed drop off location is about 30 miles, but we can do other things with in that town. But usually I will drive to the the downtown area and find a UPS truck, they always take packages as long as the shipping label is on it of course.

I voted usps because they are often late, but I'm less happy with UPS as they tend to deliver my stuff to someone else...

USPS shipping late comes as a standard

I´ve never had ANY problems with the UPS or Fedex

FedEX drivers have the option to not deliver a package to you for up to a week if they don't want to i.e. you are the only person X amount of miles out of their way, and they want to try and get more packages around you. UPS doesn't have that option.

UPS, mostly because I over-use it.

Fedex doesn't get a chance to fuck-up.

USPS has been surprisingly good.

i can't stand the lazy workers at the post office. so USPS is an automatic no-go.
