Warning: be sure to check Fedex Monday hours...

The one I go do most of the time is closing around 4:00 pm (vs. 8:00 pm) and last pickup I believe is 3:00 pm. The cutoff for drop-offs not staying in state or close, is usually 5:30. Just something to be aware of and to be sure to let your clients know.

What about Saturday?

Soneone told me today that 1pm is the cutoff...couldn't find it any where. Tried to call fedex, the auto attendent had no information.

Re: What about Saturday?

This could vary by location, but I think the person I spoke with at my local office said they will have normal hours this Saturday. It's also possible that they may cut off deliveries earlier than they cut off pickups, but it also may be the opposite.

One borrower today told me that the shippers have two people on their trucks lately - one to drive and one to run in with the packages, so they can make deliveries faster. Guess we're not the only ones for whom this is crazy making season!
