i expect this is why the opinions differ - the last place I lived - the UPS guy was incredibly careless- items were often broken or otherwise damaged - and often delivered to the wrong address. I avoided having things shipped by UPS if I could, and used Fed Ex if it was an option
since we moved here, The UPS guy is a nice guy, quite friendly - we have had no issues at all with deliveries, not one damaged package. the Fed Ex guy is ok but often just leaves the package in front of the garage door.
It leaves me to wonder how many packages are damaged in shipping Vs while out for delivery. We have all seen the you tube videos with the guys thrown the package over a fence or kicking one down the driveway
BTW- USPS - at the last house, a package was delivered to the door with a biscuit for the dogs, here if I am expecting a package -I go out to meet the mail truck- even then, with me on the way down the driveway, the truck will drive off leaving one of those tried to deliver notes and I have to go to the post office the next day to get it. last time i yelled as they drove off and they backed up and I had to wait while they filled out the form- so they were not even going to leave that
so-- I wonder how much is the company and how often it is the person
