I think they enjoy just chucking your shit around as much as possible. USPS seems to arrive as advertised with the least amount of trashing in my experience. Hey, nice Tan on your shipment though.

Here is a prime example... Ordered items amazon prime on 8th, said 1-2day delivery. It shipped via UPS from Pheonix, to SLC, to Twin Falls, to Biose... They claim weather delay in Biose back on 10th so then they send it to Hermiston, OR (HRMM OR got blasted by a storm so send it into the storm rather than around it? Shows landing in Hermiston on 11th, then back to Biose as of this morning...
Meanwhile I had an item ship USPS from Florida on the 11th that is already here in Tacoma...

I can't say that I've ever had bad experiences with USPS, UPS, or FedEx.

My package was making good time, until it reached roseburg, or. Since then, been sitting there, and they claim severe weather as their excuse.

I've seen them all damage and lose product. UPS leaving boxes in plain sight by the front door. There's supposed to be, or was a policy, "out of the weather and out of sight." Fedex does that too though... and there are at least three Fedexes. Some contracted, some not. I've seen deliveries going to be late because of weather related incidents in E. WA. In summer. I've seen a delivery going to be late because of a train wreck. Also in E. WA and I couldn't find any news report of any train crash. UPS broke a rifle stock in half. USPS damaged the baseplate on a pistol magazine. USPS tracking is not the joke it once was... "picked up on," then a day or two after it's been delivered, "out for delivery," or "delivered." Well yeah, I signed for it two days ago. Thanks. It's still not exactly up to date though.

4 packages ordered a week ago.
3 packages already delivered. All before estimated delivery date. All USPS. The only complaint I have is that they are so slow to update their tracking info. My last package was in the PO yesterday. All day. Waiting for me to pick it up. But I didn't know until hours after closing.
The last package. UPS. Came from less than half as far as the farthest USPS package. Spent two days in roseburg oregon, and two days in portland oregon. All supposedly because of bad weather. Still waiting. Apparently it is now sitting in redmond.

Main complaint with USPS is their complete inability to do "heavy". They MIGHT deliver a 10 pound box. MAYBE. But a 12 pounder? I'll need to pick that shit up. 20 pounds..........HOLY shjit what the hell is in there Sonny?
UPS dude will drag ass a scrambled 70 lb box to the shop every day.

I live in an apartment complex with packages service in the office. I got a text that UPS had delivered a package, but the office had nothing for me. Hmmmm. So I went back to my apartment and HAPPENED to go out on my patio (not something I do much when it's 25 degrees outside) and there was my package. He'd apparently decided taking it to the office was too much work so he just tossed it over the enclosure. Now, it is out of sight and out of the weather, but not where it was supposed to be and it could have taken me weeks to find it.

I once received a note ON my door from FedEx saying they couldn't deliver because they couldn't find my door. Would've been meltdown material, but the package was sitting at the landing so it was just weird.

Our street has been plowed after snow, a total of three times in 12 years. I get it. Small residential street. No big deal. Stops the USPS truck dead when not plowed. This latest snow storm for whatever reason our street got plowed twice. It's 4:15 the street is amazingly clear. There still will be no mail delivery.

the USPS truck around my parts uses chains when it snows. You can usually tell when the mail's been delivered as theres tracks in the snow of chained tires that drove on the sidewalk to deliver the mail.
