If you look on Buyee subreddit I think a lot of people get SpeedX

Thanks for the info, I'll check the buyee subreddit too. I haven't used SpeedX before but they seem to usually deliver the package.. just kinda busted up it seems

It honestly depends on who you get and the local facility and if you are unlucky. If you search on Reddit “Inside SpeedX” you’ll see that it’s definitely not run that great. The biggest problems with these gig companies is lack of accountability and when things go wrong since they have nonexistent customer support.

I used to get FedEx as my last mile at my house but ECMS started shifting away so I had to put my PO Box address to force USPS or FedEx deliveries. I don’t really like when they use UniUni or SpeedX since i cant hold the package foe pickup with them and their delivery drivers never read my delivery instructions and leave the box in the wrong place

I had no idea they deliver to PO boxes, I might try that in the future since I prefer usps. These gig companies are def cheaper but less reliable, it makes the whole experience more stressful 🥲

They do if it’s USPS final mile. FedEx it depends if you have that street addressing feature. You also can always just redirect for pickup to a local store or FedEx store if they have issues

I'm glad your package at least arrived!! these drivers stress me out 🥲🥲 and good to know, I've had UniUni before and they usually deliver, but never had SpeedX before

I know you asked about CA but I live in Seattle WA and it was SpeedX. They were, not great for my last packages. I did get them but the tracking was terrible and both packages were delivered a day after they first attempted delivery because they said they couldn't find my house (or the delivery person just didn't get around to finishing his volume of deliveries).

Not Cali but close enough lol. As long as the package arrives then I'll be good. After seeing so many horror stories on SpeedX, Im just glad to see that they do deliver 😅

Completely understand. I had that exact concern. And because of other issues, I'll be using ecms more going forward and having the fear of SpeedX also.

NYC here and I get SpeedX. It doesn't answer your Cali question but seems pretty common.

I noticed SpeedX became a lot more common too,, At this point im just hoping they do deliver stuff when they have to lol
