“FedEx, UPS, and the USPS are already more business partners today than they are competitors. “
True. It’s surprising the amount of stuff that gets shipped, say Fed Ex, and turns up at your house delivered by USPS. I didn’t realize it myself before I spent a lot of time shipping and monitoring deliveries for work. They hand-off to one another when it suits their model and makes $ sense.
Definitely. The relationship with FedEx has improved the quality of USPS’s airmail service while saving it money over operating its own fleet. And if it is Prime service Surepost deliveries won’t sit at the post office for days although they probably will arrive a day later than they would with UPS.
