I had two deliveries from UPS last week and when they couldn’t drive up our .4 of a mile, very steep, gravel driveway they walked up and delivered them to our door.

That takes dedication.

On the other hand FEDEX dropped a package off and stuck it behind a bush. We didn’t even know it had been delivered. We just noticed it there when we came home one afternoon.

This package went from Lenexa to Mesquite and back to Lenexa. I live on a private gravel road and found the package left by the highway.

Sounds identical to my experience with both companies this year. UPS delivered right to the house and in some cases ahead of schedule. FedEx took 3 days to do an overnight delivery and then left it by the road, out of sight until we happened to see it on our way out to midnight mass and the driver had the gall to report it is delivered to the porch.

***That takes dedication.***

Bunkum. I had two UPS deliveries in the last two weeks. One, they delivered late at night, no knock on the door, I didn’t find the package till later that night in a rainstorm. The package was so soaked the cardboard package fell apart in my hand.

The next was yesterday, again no knock, just left on the same porch.

I was right inside the door each time, a knock would have alerted me to the packages being there.
