how far in advance
should you send a package to your resort for your upcoming trip? should you use fed-ex or just the postal service?

Re: how far in advance
We sent ours UPS. From WI to the resort took three days and we made sure it was there two days before we arrived because we were arriving on a Saturday.

Re: how far in advance
Maybe you can call the resort to see if they have any suggestions. I'm sure they receive packages for guests all of the time and they would be able to tell you which delivery service is most successful.

Re: how far in advance
I would go with UPS and use their "3-day" select service.
Its a pretty good price and at least you'll know exactly what day it will be delivered.

Re: how far in advance
Just go to your local ups office. They can tell you exactly how many days to arrive or fed ex. I wouldn't use the post office unless you get signature confirmation and allow extra days for delivery.
