Hi there
Can someone explain the benefit, financially and logistically, to get a parcel all the way to the local hub, and instead of loading on the vehicle for delivery with other items for the recipient, transferring to the local post office incurring an extra day on a two day delivery (now a two day is a three day)?
Generally our UPS driver lands between 10:00 and 14:00, but the re-routed package takes another day and arrives between 16:00 and 18:00 - so apart from annoying the recipient how does this benefit UPS? I would have thought it more economic to deliver with other items on that day, but I guess I must be missing something...
Thank you
