My understanding is you have to pay extra for sat. delivery, but since it's overnight I have no idea...

The answer is: Maybe

I've had prioirty overnight stuff delivered saturday just b/c it was on the truck and the driver was in the area.

Otherwise theres an additional charge for it.

Overnight shipped on Friday would mean Monday unless you paid the extra $20

Is there going to be a thread about this every Friday?

Companies do have web sites that have their services in detail.

Yea, I posted about this in last weeks official "does UPS deliver on saturday?" thread. You would think people would notice the answers in the other 400 threads asking this

i've had packages delivered on saturday by fedex before so it's possible. i didn't pay any extra either, they just showed up on my doorstep.

if people did that, there would be no ATOT... half the stuff posted here coulda been looked up on google or some other search engine.


besides... i'm looking for PERSONAL experiences... which you cant get on a website...

i doubt fedex will say "maybe.. maybe not... sometimes you will even if you dont pay for it" on their website

Next day means next business day. Saturday delivery must be specified and paid for as the other members have stated. And that's only if you live in a service area that supports that service. Only major cities in the city limits kind of thing.

My package shipped PRIORITY OVERNIGHT....

According to Fedex...

"Working on the weekend? Priority Overnight® offers Saturday delivery by noon or 1:30 p.m., depending on location."

So the answer to my original question is.... maybe.


Thanks all who answered.

 

[GrumpyMan]

Hmm......cool, hope you live in the priority service area then. Didn't realize they had that service as a package deal so to speak.

[GrumpyMan]

Yep, NY would definately be one of the those service areas.

Seriously, FedEx/UPS weekend deilvery times have got to be the most asked questions on ATOT

Does FEDEX Deliver During Weekends?

Does FedEx deliver on Saturday?

Does UPS deliver on Saturday?

does UPS deliver on Sundays?

Can i pick up my Fedex package up on Saturday at the Distrib. Center?
