then why does the company UPS pay the post office to deliver a crap load of their deliveries ?
Sympathy?
because its cheaper and they make more money that way
For example, the Borough of Alpine, NJ does not allow UPS or Fed Ex to deliver directly to residences. Packages are dropped off at the tiny( and soon to be eliminated) post office.
In other places, UPS and Fed Ex will not deliver to high crime areas. The USPS does. At high risk to carriers.
