[QUOTE="upsgrunt, post: 194005, member: 9295"] I may be wrong, but I use the over 70 on pkgs that are dimensional over 70 as well. It used to be that UPS would refuse packages that were too big.(remember the chains?) Now we take ANYTHING. It seems that lately I will get pkgs that are 4 foot tall and barely fit on the floor between the shelves. (Usually on the 7000 or 8000 shelf!) You know the ones that you basically have to drive to after your big bulk stop just to get out of your way. If this thing weighs 10 pounds, which just the cardboard does on that size, it still goes in as an over 70, just because of the awkwardness. I'm not trying to cheat anybody, but the size should also be considered when getting "extra time" when delivering a package. How long will it be before we are delivering full size refrigerators, or washers and dryers? IMHO size has gotten way out of hand at UPS. I'm sure the revenue is good, but damn, they have to remember we don't have fork lifts. [/QUOTE]
