Why is FedEx Express so expensive? ›

The company said the rate hike was due to “the significant increases in transportation costs, including vehicle fuel and maintenance expenses.” The percentage of increase depended on the weight of the package and where it was going.

Typical FedEx delivery hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday–Friday and on Saturday and Sunday for residential deliveries except for FedEx expedited shipments. FedEx expedited delivery times vary by service.

When do you have to sign for a package with FedEx? You only have to sign for a package if required by sender or by FedEx policy.
