It all is up to the delivery driver, and their ability to read and follow directions.

We had a FedEx package coming to us First AM, hurry max rush rush, get it there now price supposed to be there by 8:00 AM signature required. It was a irreplaceable roll of 9 inch wide 500 foot long film from our aerial camera. We had 16 hours of flying involved and the cost of the film. Over 12 grand in our costs on the line. Our customer was whining they want it done ASAP.

The FedEx driver left it on the front porch of some crack house in a bad part of town miles from our office. The address was not even close to ours.

We called FedEx, and with strong language, convinced their manager to get off her butt, and go pick it up and bring it to us now! We finally got it at 3:00 PM and they still wanted to charge us for the 8:00 AM delivery so more discussions followed.
