DHL once told me that they were unable to deliver an overnight package
because my address did not exist. The fact that they had delivered dozens
of packages to my house previously did not seem to matter.

When DHL was shutting down, they picked up a defective part from me -
AND NEVER DELIVERED IT. I called about it after 2 weeks, and IBM/Lenovo
could find no trace of it other than the pickup acknowledgment. I hope
the driver enjoyed it - it was, like, defective already.
Other than that, and a tendency to do stupid things like deliver at 10PM
(I'm not one of those folks who would answer the door at that hour with
a gun in my hand, but a couple of my neighbors probably are!), they did
OK by me.

Wow! We sorely hated DHL out west in Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming,
and New Mexico. FedEx Ground has always been the one for us. UPS has
now gotten better so they only crush 1/2 the boxes they deliver, but the
price is right

The biggest problem is that DHL/Airborne is gone, and the other carriers
do not provide the level of next day service that previously existed.
