[QUOTE="STFXG, post: 1675345, member: 41750"] We (Ground) have lost a significant amount of volume to SmartPost. Most of our trucks go out with around 80% of the volume we did a few years ago and the truck is still full. Lots of oversized stuff. We also used to get paid a premium for oversized packages, which we no longer do. New updates are supposed to route some of that SmartPost volume back for delivery when we are already going there. Same idea as what UPS does with SurePost. We are getting killed with oversized though. FedEx can undercut UPS on price with those, take a bigger profit, and pay us the same as they do for an envelope. [/QUOTE]
