But this totally explains it! They’ve partnered with fedex and there are fedex counters in a lot of their stores now. Anyway I noticed that this particular Walgreens had a FedEx counter! I didn’t think anything of it at the time since I was on a mission LOL. Now that you mention it, I went to a local Walgreens around valentines day, it’s one that I never go to because it’s on the bad side of town and I have no reason to go there, there’s another one in a better part of town but I usually go to CVS or Target however Walgreens sells a particular stuffed animal my kids like. To top it off my Walgreens does an acceptance scan while I watch and ask if I want an email notification of acceptance. Ground contractors have an agreement to handle certain services yet FedEx violates this by not giving the ground side access to the boxes.

Too bad FedEx advertises and expects the Express drivers to handle contracted freight. Walgreens and FedEx are currently working on pick up at all 8000 Walgreens in the nation and it is supposed to be implemented by fall 2018. The ole FedEx ground in an Express dropbox situation. it looks like ALL of the local Walgreens are taking FedEx Drop offs now) Walgreens (I just looked at my locator on the FeEx site. Not a Guy LOL)Īlso try Kinkos and Office Depot. (UPS is a bit easier in that respect as any brown UPS truck will take Express or for reference. FedEx (like UPS) tends to do commercial in the morning and residential delivery in late afternoon, but that varies by locale, route, etc. *FedEx Ground drivers can be difficult to find, but best bet is business or commercial areas early in the day when they are making commercial deliveries.
To ensure prompt shipping of FedEx Ground packages, locating a dropoff that has well defined and regular Ground pickups or handing them to a FedEx Ground Driver* is the approach.

In your case, driver will drop them at a location that also happens to be a Ground nexus, but in other locations that may not be possible or may not be the local policy.ĭropping Ground packages in Express boxes or dropping them off at retail locations that don't have regular or don't have late in the day Ground pickups can/will result in shipping delays of a day or more. So what we learned here is that Ground packages are NOT supposed to go in Express Drop Boxes, and if they do, what happens next will depend on locale, temperament of the Express Pickup driver, and local FedEx policies.
