[QUOTE="Just Numbers, post: 1268578, member: 22877"] This may very well be the downfall of UPS. They can buy planes, trailers, tractors and package cars, they can even lease them to carry the volume but, how about the facilities to process the packages. Sure they have thrown a ton of money into Worldport and tech. In the meantime they have neglected the buildings. Sure, they have tried to modernize and improve but to what avail . Many of the facilities built in the boom of the '70's and '80's during U.S. expansion and prior to online shopping and and all the other tech improvements required during this time. How many of you saw trailers surrounding your building at peak that were unable to be processed. Let's face it, unless UPS starts to replace these 30, 40 and 50 yr old buildings with state of the art tech, with room to expand and the ability to improve the facilities as needed, the game is over.
