UPS SurePost volume shifts away from US Postal Service, Teamsters say

  • UPS SurePost packages are now being delivered by UPS drivers only, rather than a large portion of those parcels going to the U.S. Postal Service, a Teamsters union spokesperson told Supply Chain Dive.
  • “Millions of packages moved away from SurePost and the United States Postal Service and returned to UPS package cars this month, now being sorted and delivered by hardworking UPS Teamsters,” the union said in a Facebook post on Tuesday.
  • UPS did not respond to multiple requests for comment about the Teamsters’ claims of SurePost changes. However, SurePost information on UPS’ website, including product features and how deliveries are made, no longer mentions the Postal Service. Previous versions of those overviews highlighted how SurePost leveraged the agency, including for PO Boxes and addresses outside the contiguous U.S.
