A UPS brother on my FedEx Express route told me that UPS is going to start delivering ground freight on Sundays? Is this true? If so, when does it start?
Saturdays are a total charlie foxtrot right now. Can't imagine Sunday delivery with a new vehicle line up and preload. It could be done, but will require a M-friend personnel commitment. Even using reduced wage 22.4 drivers, I still don't see it being very profitable as all our Saturday drivers now only make $18.75/hr.I hope so.
With the new 22.4 drivers in the new contract it is going to happen.
People will get their stuff 1 day quicker
When the Teamsters agreed to a two tier PT wage system in 1982. The beginning of the end for UPS Union employees.Wow! I make more than $18.75 an hour. Whatever happened to the union working for the betterment of all its members?
Where's the volume going to come from?

They don't utilize their technology and let the driver participate with helpful traffic and safety tips to maximize a safer faster delivery pattern.
Really like that , very well wordedUPS wants to keep employees to make deliveries on time, and faster. They dont care about Us, all they care is about their pockets. All those safety concerns, they take it out when we messed up only. All its at their convenience and benefits.
Amazon and USPS contract is ending here soon right?
The post master said they will raise rates for package delivery for large customers including Amazon.Post office rate hike could cost Amazon up to $1.8 billion more per year: Credit SuisseIs there really a risk that the USPS and Amazon won't work another deal similar to the one that currently exists? I'm curious. Anyone have any insight?

I believe at Peak you'll see clean up drivers on Sunday's delivering mostly air packages and send agains. I doubt you'll see Freight actually delivering. Maybe haul loads across state on a Sunday.A UPS brother on my FedEx Express route told me that UPS is going to start delivering ground freight on Sundays? Is this true? If so, when does it start?
