Also, something to keep in mind, if UPS strikes then USPS will be overwhelmed! I remember that happening the last time UPS went on strike. It will not be fun.
If they go on strike, I’ll be pulling all my UPS shipping items. Even if they get someone to work for them, not taking a chance of getting a late hit or broken package.
Haven’t used UPS in 20 years.
They break my nicely packaged stuff and won’t pay the claim.
One time a fork lift put the forks right through the pallet contents.
My things got skewered and they never paid the claim.
Never Ever again.
Literally 3 strikes, now they’re out as an option.
