And how about Amazon Prime delivery service? By me we get either an actual Amazon truck or a Ryder rental. Either way the truck slows down and tosses the package in the general direction of your door. If you are lucky it will be at the right address.

We get the Amazon vans but some of the prime deliveries have been in regular unmarked cars, what I assume are personal vehicles. It's kind of odd, I never know who the hell is pulling up to my house.

Those unmarked cars are the suckers-I mean contractor delivery drivers for Amazons outsourced delivery service (who by the way are on the hook for everything & anything with out legal/finacial support if anything happens on the routes.) I'd rather see USPS, UPS , or FedEx drop kick a priceless vase into my front yard before an unknown Amazon contractor coming to the house.

As we speak I have a package that shipped via fedex on Monday. Tracking says it is due next Tuesday. 20 to 1 odds says I get it tomorrow. Their tracking is always conservative to my address for some reason.

Well I have something through FedEx that was supposed to be here last Saturday. On September 5th, it was in Winnipeg, Manitoba, a 6 hour drive with the Destination carrier. Even if it went to Regina, Saskatchewan, a 1.5 hour drive, it should have been here. I may have to contact someone.

Having worked for one of the major carriers..........ALL packages go to hubs..........sorting hubs............the hubs are located
at strategic points throughout the USA...............Memphis, Los Angeles, Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta, Newark, Indianapolis, etc...
Packages are loaded destined to the hubs then sorted, and then sent back to the corresponding closest locations.
This is done in containerized freight.
No carrier can nor will look at your specific package and decide which way is best to send it. It is all done by zip codes
and computerized barcodes.

Individuality for your package does not exist, Logic does not play into the system.....it is done on a programmed calculated basis
by each company now. So be happy if it's there on time and if it's not, file a claim for shipping reimbursement. Complaining will
not change company policy and procedures. Trying to figure it out will just cause you more confusion. It's the way things are.

another Fex, waiting on an $18,000 settlement cheque for a client. I was out of my office yesterday when they left a card which had the box ticked for me to pick it up. I went to the termial today and was told the package was out for delivery. I pointed to the box the driver ticked and told them to tell the driver to return so I can get my package. I was told that the triver tried to deliver it on Dec 6 but that is BS cause no card was left...the mangager sais they would get a courrier to get eh package and cll me when they were going to deliver it. Before I go back to my office Fex tried to call 3 times but never left a message....sure glad I let the manager know what I thought of the company when there was a line waiting to get their packages.

    We've incorrectly sorted this package which may cause a delay.
