Okay everyone- another poll!
I know a lot of people have heavy opinions about shipping companies, good and bad. So which one do you like to use the most and why? I kinda prefer fedex, they're the cheapest for ground shipping for a bike size package.

Fedex has NEVER done me wrong, and I've shipped many boxes/bikes/etc etc through them. Almost everytime I've shipped thru UPS I have had problems, well atleast every other time.

FedEx rules. For everything I've ever shipped (bikes, small springs, cell. phone, laptop, etc.), they're cheaper than both UPS and USPS by a couple bucks easy. Plus, I've found that they have more locations to ship from around my neck of the woods (Seattle, WA), which is definitely a perk (when one doesn't have a car). I've also had UPS lose stuff before.

I like FedEx, never had any problems with them. UPS is alright...., USPS is good but I'd prefer Fedex all the same, and then DHL has quick service but sh1tty tracking system.

Plus my mom is a programmer for FedEx so I get discounted rates when shipping stuff. :D

FedEx for packages larger than USPS will accept, stuff that absolutely has to be there overnight, and other things that I feel I need a tracking number for.

US mail for absolutely everything else.

FedEx will be my shipping company for a long while. They have never damaged a package and once I got a package form them a day early.
