I have a UPS Ground prepaid label to return the cell phone that I’m trading. They told me it would be $10-12 to schedule a driver pickup, else I can take it to a dropoff location. When did this start? Boo, UPS. Boooooo.
Edit: To be completely fair, it may be that the destination decided not to pay extra for driver pickups rather than this being some new UPS thing. I don’t know the inner workings.
They charge for a scheduled pickup, but they don’t charge if the driver is already destined for your address. You can give it to your driver on your next delivery for free. I’ve also given out-bound packages to my UPS driver when I see him delivering to other units in my complex.
Which is completely fine. Expecting the driver to go out of his way to pick up your package, and do it completely for free, is unreasonable
That’s good to know, thanks.
Fair but we don’t get regular deliveries via UPS. Most everything we get comes USPS or occasionally FedEx.
Do you think every service offered by every company should be free?
I’m shipping using a pre-paid label. Pre-PAID. And they used to let you schedule pickups for free, as I said. It’s not like they come straight to your house. They can come by any time during business hours on the day you schedule.
But I don’t think you care about any of that. Whatever is wrong that makes you this way, I hope your life improves.
Makes me what way? I’m just asking a question!
