Main problem is that no one is allowed to put stuff in a USPS mailbox except the USPS. So our condo complex does have this setup for mail packages that are too big to fit in our locked mailbox, but UPS/FedEx can't use it.
- wavefunction 13y agoUSPS is doing a lot of last-mile fulfillment for the private couriers, so that maybe be one way around it.
- araes 13y agoSpeaking of which, when did UPS start just dropping off packages with USPS rather than trying to deliver them themselves? Came by once at 1:00 (naturally at work) and then off to USPS. I was really surprised when this happened the other week, and it seems like a bit of a misuse of the postal service. Frankly, I think if couriers just changed to doing a lot of their delivery after normal work hours it would fix a lot of this. Swing shift delivery - it works.
- waterlesscloud 13y agoAlmost all my Amazon packages come by USPS now, it used to be fairly evenly split between USPS and UPS. Not sure how it happened, but I prefer it. As far as misuse of USPS, if the postal service is getting paid for it, not only is it not misuse, it's revenue they need.
