Fedex or UPS, or other?
I just want your opinion on which delivery service is best.

I like UPS tracking a little better than FedEx, but I've heard too many complaints about UPS ... damaged goods, inconsiderate personnel.
I generally use FedEx, there's a main terminal not far from my home.

I like USPS Priority with delivery confirmation. It's cheap and usually fast as long as they don't have to microwave your package | |

| Well truth be known thats pobably true for any shipping company. Personaly I have had no problem with UPS, but I do have reservations about putting breakables on a truck with oops on the side of it.But it's the only delivery service availible in town.

I've sent hundreds of packages with USPS Priority. With big packages I go with FedEx though.

Both FedEx and UPS are great, but never use Fed Ex Ground. For some reason they are utterly incompetant.
Example: Fed Ex has never--I mean EVER--missed my location ( I live on Main Street on the corner of a VERY distinctive intersection).
Fed Ex Ground has never managed to deliver there--save one time when, in frustration, I called them and had them print out directions.

I prefer FedEx, due to the fact that someone actually has to sign for the package, unlike UPS. 
Besides, this should be their new logo...
