Your Questions About Fedex

Donna asks…

How do you change your shipping address at Fedex if your package is already sent?

I bought a laptop and some speakers from walmart and it sent it through fedex, but me in a hurry, put in the wrong address. Help!!

Nagesh answers:

That’d be hard. You may be able to have them “hold at office” then go down to their local shipping office and get it yourself. But have it re-deliever to a different address would require the SHIPPER’s approval, not the recipient.

Fedex used to be pretty lax about this until some crooks convinced Fedex to redeliver expensive stuff (such as laptops) to some other address so that it was “lost”.

Daniel asks…

How much are Fedex Ground drivers paid per package to deliver and pick up?

I understand Fedex Ground drivers are independent contractors.

How much do they get paid for each package they deliver and for each package they pick up?
Is that gross or net? (i.e., is that after they pay for the truck, insurance, and gas)?

Nagesh answers:

Again, each contracted route varies. There are certain factors that provide the contractors settlement. Mileage, distance from terminal, projected volume, weight of package, etc. If you are interested in a route, ask contractors in your local terminal. They would be the best source for telling you about the business.

Ken asks…

How long does Fedex Home Delivery take to deliver from PA to MD?

The service is called Fedex Home Delivery. It’s not Ground. It was just called “Home Delivery”. Anybody know how many days it takes a package going from PA to MD to be delivered with this service? Thanks.

Nagesh answers:

Well techinally Fedex home delivery is an offshoot of Fedex ground
fedex home delivery takes 1 to 7 days and there is no guarantee on what day the package will arrive
Fedex home delivery is really just fedex ground delivering to Residences
(only) and they will deliver on Saturdays for no additional charges
(what usually happens is that all Fedex home delivery packages
are picked by a ground person and transported via fedex ground trucks
to the closet hub and then if the city has Fedex home delivery couriers
will take it from there (if not the Ground will deliver the package

Sandy asks…

How do I return an apple accessory scheduling a pickup with fedex?

I got replacement headphones from my apple warranty. How do I get fedex to pick it up? Because I don’t live close to a fedex.

Nagesh answers:

With the replacement headphones should have been instructions on how to return the originals. Assuming the return package has a Fedex label on it you should be able to drop it off at a Fedex Office/Kinkos or use a Fedex drop box. There’s normally a box outside most post offices.
