Don't you be putting the hex on me.
Yah who knows with these things, ya just hope you don't get the handler who is having a bad day or is an idiot.
I find USPS is much better then UPS for glass items as UPS tosses the boxes and throws a heavy box on a non-heavy box. They are good with getting non-fragile pieces, but never again with anything glass.
Learned the hard way.
I also think that is due to USPS not doing the big heavy items like UPS, USPS is more letters and small packages. UPS ships EVERYTHING. And they have to be quick so very little care is used.
So my 2 cents, you want something there quick and its not breakable UPS.....something breakable, go USPS. You don't have to worry about your package going threw the assembly lines and then tossed into a truck with someones Patio Grill or Peloton Bike or a weight set.
