Oak Ridge Regulator Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 Since April of this year I have had 4 pkgs mysteriously disappear all from the same FedEx facility in Nashville Tenn, one did show up 3 months later, used and wrapped up in a duct taped box. That I just couldn’t figure out. Has anyone else had issues with this FedEx facility. You can’t seem to contact them in any way 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 I wouldn’t ship cow chips by FedEx!! There are two FedEx facilities in Nashville and I won’t go near either of them!! The clerks don’t know their butts from a hole in the ground and management is dumber than the clerks!! There are a few drivers that’re all right, but half of ‘em couldn’t find the street if they were standing in the middle of it!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Snorter Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 We have generally done well with both UPS and FedEx, but lately different FedEx drivers nearly every delivery, the good one we had for the past year, hopefully promoted or gone to a better job. Lately, even for cheap stuff, FedEx wants to take a picture and or get a signature. We are way out in the country and back off the road, so no porch pirates. Wonder what the deal is.

Pat Riot Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 Here both FedEx and UPS have closed their service centers. The nearest UPS is 70 miles. The nearest FedEx is 50 miles. FedEx has a sign on the door of the closed facility 3 miles from my house that says “All FedEx drop offs or shipments should go the the Box & Ship store in Sabraton.” That’s 4.5 miles from me. I needed to ship a rifle to Ruger via FedEx. I walked into the Box&Ship store and handed them my package and waited for a receipt. The young lady scanned it. Stared at the screen for a moment then looked at me and said “Thank You” as she handed me my receipt and I left. Not sure how often I will get away with that, but hey, I was just following the shipper’s instructions. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. C.J. Sabre, SASS #46770 Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 (edited) There was a Fedex driver here that seemed to never be able to figure out that my house with the six inch high numbers on it was my address. He kept delivering my stuff next door to the house with no numbers. Since some of these deliveries were from Amazon, I was able to complain through them. I was not polite about it. Lo and behold, I received an email from Fedex apologising for the problem, WITH contact info for the manager, and it hasn't happened since. Edited October 3 by Sgt. C.J.

Which quite the effort. I was having an issue with the "new" UPS driver whom had been to the door with now leaving driver. Once "new" guy was on his own,he just started leaving our packages out at the road. It's about 1000 ft to the road !! Drove to the distribution center and spoke with the Supervisor. Asked if there was an issue with driveway that I wasn't aware of and needed corrections to have them come all the way in as has been done for decades. He apologized, and the deliveries have been fine for well over a year now! Good Luck Oakridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 ORR!! Were all of your parcels sent from the same place?? Just wondering! To add insult to injury, FedEx’s tracking is the worst excuse for package management I may have ever seen!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypress Sun Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 If FedEx and UPS merged....would it be FedUP. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORNERY OAF Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Crap, I just shipped stuff to a gunsmith in Oregon by fedex......better than USPS, I shipped a rifle years ago(Brit L1A1) to seattle to a buyer. Gun was stolen from the sorting facility in washington state. Package never left for delivery.. Internal theft is what inspector general said. Then they tried to deny my insurance claim that I paid them for....wow, never again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Maverick Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 I have been having issues with USPS delivering my packages for a couple of years now. I finally got fed up and called their 800 number and gave her examples of some of my lost packages that said delivered but they were not put into my mailbox. I said the lady that does the delivery is either lazy or incompetent or both. I told them I had even found bundles of mail laying on top of our community mailboxes where there were left by her. They are lucky I am honest and actually went to each home and delivered their mail to them. I guess I made my point because now the lady brings my packages straight to my front door instead of putting them into the mail slots/boxes.

Oak Ridge Regulator Posted October 4 Author Share Posted October 4 Three of my pkgs were electronic dog collars, the one I finally got 3 months later had been used and repackaged in the original box. Why ? I have no idea. This 4th pkg was bulk ammo so I’m pretty sure that got stolen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
