and as others have stated . . . I don't use the boxes either. I go to my local Fed Ex Center almost every day and drop my packages with them. I have learned that there are ground trucks as well as express trucks in and out of that location several times per day and depending on what type of package you are shipping, it goes with that particular driver on that particular truck to different locations. All of the Fed Ex Express trucks take the packages to the MSP International Airport and get them directly on the planes to their locations. The Fed Ex Ground trucks take the packages to another location where they are put on trucks for their journey. I have also learned that UPS does the same thing. There are big UPS trucks that take everything to a ship center but there are little UPS vans that are considered airport vehicles and they take everything to the airport. |
