Domestic Delivery
Selected by the General Services Administration (GSA) as winner of DDS3 Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA), UPS is the sole vendor for express and ground domestic delivery. This means savings and benefits for you, including one low, flat UPS Next Day Air rate for all zones in the U.S. 48, with no weight limit. Plus you won't be charged for daily pickups or fuel surcharges for express and ground packages.
Since low rates only translate to cost savings if the service is strong and reliable, we offer a money-back guarantee for all air and ground deliveries. Plus, you can rely on our expert insight to help you make more informed decisions and better manage your shipping.
