Fedex or UPS?


Which is the safer bet when shipping something heavy such as an amplifier? I have never shipped such a heavy item before. Thanks

UPS just delivered some 95 pound Soliloquy speakers for me. Left them out in the weather, no signature, stacked on their sides as opposed to upright, boxes tore all to heck and back. No wonder he didn't stick around!! They were fortunately not damaged but I can't use the boxes again (almost $100 for a new set that UPS WILL NOT pay for since the speakers weren't damaged). They do this all the time to me though I attempt to force everyone I deal with to ship FedEx Ground (some won't).

UPS SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DHL may be an alternative.
The only way I've seen things come thru safe is strapped to a pallet and shipped freight where they had to use a fork truck.
