When nationwide moving comes to mind, we often think of people packing up their belongings and relocating to a new location across the country. However, it’s not always about the big boxes, and huge container trucks.
Small items, documents and other personal articles are important too and when these items need to be delivered in the quickest way possible, people turn to UPS.

UPS (United Parcel Service, Inc.) was founded in 1907 as a simple messenger company in the United States. More than a hundred years later and UPS is now a multi-billion-dollar corporation that plays a pivotal role in global commerce. In fact, it’s one of the most recognized brands around the world. Today, it’s the largest package delivery company as well as a leader in specialized transportation and logistics services, managing the flow of goods, funds and information in more than 200 countries all across the globe.
UPS has branched out into several businesses each with specific goals and operations, but for the purposes of nationwide moving, we are going to focus on their core business- shipping.
Did you know that UPS delivers more than 16 million packages and documents every single day?

If your package gets lost or is not delivered, you can ask UPS to help you locate the package. If it really cannot be found, the shipper can file a Lost Package Claim up to the declared value of the package’s contents.
UPS will not ship any items that can be dangerous or hazardous. Here are some common household items that will not be accepted:
In addition to these hazardous/dangerous items, UPS will also refuse to ship perishable goods that may deteriorate, die, or decompose during travel. If you have any pets or live animals, you’d be better off traveling with them yourself provided that you have the necessary permits if applicable.
