How do you ship a package via Fedex from your house?
Is it possible to ship a package via FedEx from your house? Or do you -have- to go to a store or drop box?
Michelle answers:
I’m pretty sure there are ways to do that online. I would check their website. A friend of mine does it all the time. I run an online store that sells packaging and shipping supplies. Anyway, my advice to you would be to make sure that you package all the boxes correctly, as no one will be there to do it for you. So I would suggest that you load up on bubble mailer envelopes and packing tape!
Mark asks…
How long does Fedex Home Delivery take to deliver from PA to MD?
The service is called Fedex Home Delivery. It’s not Ground. It was just called “Home Delivery”. Anybody know how many days it takes a package going from PA to MD to be delivered with this service? Thanks.
Michelle answers:
Well techinally Fedex home delivery is an offshoot of Fedex ground
fedex home delivery takes 1 to 7 days and there is no guarantee on what day the package will arrive
Fedex home delivery is really just fedex ground delivering to Residences
(only) and they will deliver on Saturdays for no additional charges
(what usually happens is that all Fedex home delivery packages
are picked by a ground person and transported via fedex ground trucks
to the closet hub and then if the city has Fedex home delivery couriers
will take it from there (if not the Ground will deliver the package
Thomas asks…
How can I find out what businesses the FEDEX and UPS trucks stop at every day in my city?
I am doing a research paper here at UNLV and it is on the logistics and shipping business of the major overnight and 2nd day carriers in Las Vegas. I am trying to find a couple routes that the UPS and FEDEX drivers use here to determine the effectiveness of GPS units on the trucks among other things. Any and all thoughts on how I can gather this information would be appreciated.
Thanks for the help. ~Jimmy
Michelle answers:
I would bet they stop everywhere. I don’t know if that would help or hurt you.
Paul asks…
How long will a package be in transit after it has reached my local fedex location?
My package arrived at my local fedex location today at 10:44, at 3:11 it was in transit. How long should it take to arrive?
Michelle answers:
It depends on how it was shipped and where it was shipped to.
FedEx has several different levels of service. They offer Next Day Delivery (but probably not from California to Europe). They also offer 2nd service and ground service.
If you’re shipping FedEx Priority Overnight,It’s Next-business-day delivery by 10:30 a.m. To most U.S. Addresses; by noon, 4:30 p.m. Or 5 p.m. In remote areas; by noon, 1:30 p.m. Or 4:30 p.m. On Saturdays.
FedEx Ground service: 1–5 business days within the contiguous U.S.; 3–7 business days to and from Alaska and Hawaii.
FedEx Home is 1–5 business days within the contiguous U.S.; 3–7 business days to and from Alaska and Hawaii.
This is all assuming, of course, that you’re in the US…
