"UPS would be able to take advantage of the rapid growth of bulky e-commerce sales and leverage its reputation in last-mile delivery, all without expanding its existing assets or dedicating a portion of its fleet to these types of shipments."
Without question the dumbest line of the whole article, almost a joke if real.

IE showed them on paper, it would work. They think everything is a letter.

Everything has gotten bigger and heavier and the same people are getting

multiple shipments everyday.

That's why it's called the "Heavy Goods" project - because we think we'll get more letters.

Yep... or small bags of clothing with the occasional 50 lb box...not anymore

Or we delivered loads of "Wisconsin cheese" and you could fit 18,000 into a single trailer. Those days are over. The margins are so low on those shipments we give them to USPS, and so does FDX. This allows us to make !record profits!.
