Anyone else notice a significant decline in volume from the same time period last year? Trips that were rarely cut during the slower months are now being cut several times a week and this is October!
I also notice that there are streets that always had at least a few deliveries now getting zero. Seeing a lot of Amazon packages, large ones at that, sitting on the steps delivered by the post office. Some even have the Amazon Prime logo. They are not all surepost, but rather USPS specific labels.
Just curious if anyone else is noticing this. Think it may be time to short UPS. They may be able to post good numbers do to cost savings, but I assume the volume for the 4th quarter will be lower then last years 4th quarter if what I am seeing is happening across the country.
