I am a retired Fedex Freight City Driver and I average about 25-30 stops a day. There were about 12-15 deliveries and about the same with pickups. My tailer could hold about 22-24 pallets and if one or more customers shipped 6-8 pallets on one p/u, this could reduce the number of stops because my trailer would fill up faster. This is when you notify the dispatcher to send backup to p/u from your other customers. Retired 1995 (28 yrs) from the United States Army and from Fedex Freight in 2010 with 15 yrs of service. Be Safe out there!!

Won’t matter if you have experience unless they desperately need drivers. If he was to leave FedEx & go to UPS, he’d have to start from the bottom & work his way up again. UPS is also much harder with the work, and harder to get into as a Driver due to Seniority & signings of ppl wanting to be drivers. You’d just have to be lucky & it typically depends on the HUB you’re stationed at. I had a friend who worked for UPS & it took him 3yrs (Don’t know how he did it) just to get a drivers position.
