Probably all 3 services have good and bad areas. When I'm at
home in rural Colorado, UPS is great, USPS is ok, FedEx stinks.

I once was waiting on a FexEx package with computer parts as my
machine was down. Had it sent high priority. Well, it was 
routed to Denver (300 miles away) and MAILED to me via the USPS.
If I'd know they were going to do that, I never would have
paid the extra for premium service to begin with...and would
have just had it sent priority USPS.
