Most of my customers are individuals , not pet shops . This makes the entire certification process absolutely useless to me . I have stopped using Fedex to avoid a debate with the lady at the counter every time I go to ship . Anyone else having these issues?
I don't have any of those issues. I don't debate the finer points of the waiver either. Home based businesses are considered business to business. You can send it business zoned and sometimes they will change it to residential, sometimes they don't. The package is still delivered. I complete all labels online then drop them off. It really has been simple. I have my rep stored on speed dial on my cell phone if I have any problems at the terminal.
