I have never had any problems using FedEx. UPS on the other hand has screwed up a few times (causing me to use FedEx). Once UPS charged my debit card twice for the same shipment and never even picked up the box. Another time I bought a new MDA cell phone and one of the O0 yanked it out the side of the box and ghetto taped the box up and delivered it. The did a few other crap over the years. I use to only use them because FedEx was on the other side of town.

UPS is better at ground, FEDEX is better at express packages.

They both lick USPS's nuts if you ask me...

fedex best rates for heavy items=customer service=---- claims=----
ups=great customer service. More expensive ground=claims=solid



usps=hot girl at my local one Im hoping to tap soon. Flat rate owns all.

Yeah you better hope so haha, might be having to make a ride down to the border. I filled out all the gay ass paperwork, so if it's anything else it's FedEx/your gay gov. fault.

Well, I never had problem to get my pieces shipped from US (I had like 100+ things shipped from US) You should know that you never ship something in the factory box. Transporters don't care about box. They kick them in the truck and brake the box...

I got a piece from Hongkong in 1 week and a LM-1 in less than a week from US.

UPS broke plenty of my packages. but those packages usually have insurance so i'm fine
fedex has been good to me so far.
USPS.... sent 7 of my packages to the wrong address in the last 2 months.

BigD 08-22-2008 05:04 PM

Re: FedEx Sucks ASS!!!
 
^ Good luck. I shipped a head once and when it got to the guys house the box was trashed and parts were handed to him by the UPS guy and said they were rolling around in his truck. Went to file a claim and after weeks they said that it wasn't boxed properly. WTF, it was in a minty fresh box stuffed with crushed newspaper per the UPS guidelines.

A head packed in newspaper and you expect it to be OK??????

Seems people need schooled on how to properly pack items.

Yup I ship 200+items a month last thing broken was 2 years ago and it was injector clips. Anything heavy needs to be in away crated into the box. I make these out of us flat rate boxes so the thickness of the box is proably 6-7 times the normal thickness of a box. Then I wrap all cylinder heads,blocks in wrap I get from the local matress/furniture store stuff is sturdy. If it keeps things safe from China it'll make it to Iowa.



Then go buck wild on tape. You can get rolls of tape at harbor freight for a buck sometimes less. Dont be cheap use a whole roll it costs a buck on heavy items of value. Its pretty simple



So flat rate boxes=free
us mail packing supplies=free
newspaper=free
plastic wrap at dumpster behind furniture store=free
tape=1 dollar



No excuses.

Re: FedEx Sucks ASS!!!
 
i ship all day at work, i makes that ---- work
anytime i ship any car parts they get foamed in place, unless is something small like injcetors, those get the buble wrap. i also staple that ---- then use the fiber-tape.

btw to whoever said they rebox ---- at ups, our tape & boxes have our logo on them, so you cant do that ----

Anytime I've shipped anything large/bulky and heavy like a head, I've wrapped it in plastic bags, garbange bags, or saran wrap. Support the item in the box somehow (foam blocks), tape it up, then pump expanding foam into a small hole in the box. It's a paint to get it open for the customer, but it's damn near impervious to damage. A can of expanding foam is only $5 or so.

Bone,


My local fedex throws those boxes away in the dumpster Im always box hunting there. Damn your shipping is setup for the turck to flip and the part still get there.


Havent had a problem yet with my technique. The plastic from the furnaiture store makes life so much easier.

Re: FedEx Sucks ASS!!!
 
ive had ups lose a package on me and they cracked the ---- out of a valve cover i shipped that was packed like ------- mad. i dont know how it was even possible unless it fell off the truck at highway speed and got ran over. needless to say they gave me the ------- run around for weeks and never let me file a claim on either package. i wouldnt use UPS if it was the last company on earth. i use DHL 90% of the time with USPS being the other 10% for lighter things or stuff i need to send priority mail. never once had a problem with either one.

That thing was boxed up NICE and used almost a whole role of packing taped with 2 layers completely covering the shipping label (still perfectly clear).

Aug 23, 2008 5:32 AM Departed FedEx location NASHVILLE, TN

1:05 AM Arrived at FedEx location NASHVILLE, TN

When I dropped a tranny off at Kinko's about a year ago, the manager decided to be a dick and "question" my packing since I insure for $1000, which it what the tranny is worth after OBX install.

So I pushed the box off the counter onto the floor. Noting the corner was barely dented, he said nevermind :)
