UPS wants retailers to stop encouraging last-minute Christmas deliveries

2014-10-03 16:06:32| Trucking - Topix.net

United Parcel Service is pushing retailers to stop offers of free overnight shipping on Dec. 23 to help avoid a fiasco like the one last Christmas when many customers did not get deliveries until after the holiday. Atlanta-based UPS is asking e-commerce companies to hold big sales in mid-December rather than in the last days before Christmas, and is also asking retailers to stagger offers geographically, reports The Wall Street Journal.
