    UPS always does it right. Their drivers are polite and helpful, and they don't mind walking to our back door to leave packages. Whenever I'm getting a UPS shipment I don't worry about anything, they always deliver as promised, unlike some other major shippers.

    I have owned my own business for the past 17 years. I use UPS to ship almost everything. Over the last 2 years their priorities have changed. My shop closed on most days by 4. I am lucky if I receive my packages by closing and I am forced to sit in my shop and wait for my items which usually come 1 to 2 hours later. I have made three complaints and after the third I am now receiving my orders on time. I was told by an employee that the businesses were being shipped last and homes first..What! That makes no sense whatsoever. I actually had a lot of my items shipped to my home and I sometimes have to absorb the extra cost for doing so on top of taking several boxes to my shop and buying a dollie to do so. I am not sure what my next move is going to be. I am extremely dissatisfied with the current shipping system and feel I am forced by some of my companies to continue with them.

Their delivery times are almost always accurate, the price is reasonable considering their quality of service. Other shipping companies aren't at all reliable in terms of the shipment arriving when it is scheduled to. Tracking is easy with UPS, as well. It's so easy to get updated arrival times via email or text message. More than anything, it is good to know that UPS treats its employees well.

They lost my package, but required ME to go through the ordeal of opening the case on it! What a riot!! I had my receipt showing they had taken initial possession of that now lost parcel.

    I receive Pkgs through UPS On a fairly regular basis. They're also the persons who deliver my pet's food from Chewy.com. I truly do not worry if I’m not home as the drivers have enough care about my packages and pride in their work to where they leave them hidden in my carport knowing that I will receive and notice the packages have been delivered and I always know where to go look. If I am home and the package is heavy they offered to bring it in my patio area to my front door.

I shipped it of via UPS. It was a large and heavy parcel and was headed for CA. It was plastered with huge FRAGILE labels. It arrived about a week later. I was anxious to hear from the recipient.
