Another mail question

[motorol@]

whats the best way to send a package? Nothing out of the country/ from out of the country. I'm talking one friend to another friend. Should you put a return address? UPS? USPS? DHL? Let me know if anyone has some experience with this.

Ups /Fed-EX/DH are all privately owned comp...therefore can open a package if they want, or if they think theres a reason. The only reason USPS will open a package is if it is leaking or there is a questionable odor coming from it. i worked UPS and was a hazmat responder..i opened packages on a regular basis...There was one time a package came down the slide and when it hit the rubber stopper let out a white powder on the belt...this package was opened and Law enforcment was contacted imediatly...The substance was tested By Police and came back positive for cocaine. A controlled delivery was organized were the package car driver had a officer ride along.. (like he was a superviser ride along) i dont know if they had the person sign or not, but he sure was in the paper the next day and the news took a story at our facility ! It turned out to be kilo of cocain said the news reort . depending on what it is, i would put a Different name on the return, with the correct address...who said you mailed it...Drop it in a mailbox, not at the post office..check on the weight ect...first so that you know how many stamps it needs, you can go there and weigh it..and buy the stamps..just take it w/ you Bro , then do your drop.

I would use DHL, personally. You can pay cash at a DHL drop off place (Office Depot, etc.) and use a bullshit name for sender. The other option would be to just mail it. No return address needed. Just buy the stamps with cash.

Just make sure it is packed securely and you should be fine. Domestic to Domestic should be a piece of cake.

I've never delt with anything besides USPS domestically. Used normal return address and stuff.

If we are talking potential charges. then it is always best to avoid the US govt at all costs and go private. FedX, UPS,DHL or any will do. Although (as above) they could open the package, it is a very rare occurence. (As stated, when leaking, etc.) Package neatly and discreetly and tape securely.

Use return address (omit name); that way if it does happen to come back they will just leave it at your door. If, on the other hand, they want you to sign (for a return) it is what LE calls a "controlled delivery". Simply deny you sent anything and close the door; chalk it up as a learning experience and say thanks for a close call.

you are just to paranoid. just send like it is a normal package and make sure it is packed very good. nothing will happen. the usps is not just going to pick out a priority box and say hey lets open this one and it has your stuff in it. you will be fine.
