[QUOTE="worldwide, post: 3526671, member: 2193"] UPS is actually trying to get these huge packages out of the small package network. The new fee for shipments over the max size limit is $650! UPS is really trying to encourage customers to look at UPS Freight for items over 150 lbs and over the max size limit instead of trying to sneak them into the system. If/when they are found, the penalty is $650/package. Perhaps there will also be a new service coming out soon that will also focus on these large/heavy objects going to residences (as the article alludes to). “They are making it clear to customers that ‘we don’t want this oversized volume, and if you are going to ship it with us we are going to charge you an arm and a leg,’” [URL="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ups-prices/ups-hits-customers-with-new-fees-for-oversized-packages-idUSKCN1IO2RB"]UPS hits customers with new fees for oversized packages[/URL] [/QUOTE]
