I think you can pretty much rely on any of these carriers almost without 
fail, providing:

1) Your shipment is WELL packaged.  It's a given that items will be handled 
roughly in the process of being moved from truck to plane to truck, 
etc.  Make sure the package itself won't break open, and that the contents 
won't be damaged by being bumped and jostled.

2) Your labels are clear, and well secured to the package.  I usually tape 
down a label so it's completely covered with clear plastic tape, to keep it 
secure, and prevent it from getting smeared if the package should happen to 
get wet.
