It's Apptastic
March 2012
I don’t know about you guys, but here in the office we can’t live without our multiple Apps on our smartphones. We have one for ordering pizza with the click of a button, getting directions, keeping up with the lastest on Facebook and more.
Did you know about the UPS Mobile App? If you are an “on the go” type of person that can’t live without your smartphone, use the UPS Mobile Apps for Android, BlackBerry, and iPhone. With this app you can access UPS shipping solutions wherever and whenever.
With UPS Mobile apps you can easily track your packages progress, view alerts, and find out the current status with a tracking or InfoNotice number. Want to estimate the shipping cost of a package? Simply enter an origin and destination ZIP code and get a quick time and cost quote. Need to find the nearest UPS location ASAP? UPS Mobile will help you track down the closest location using your smartphone’s GPS or a ZIP code. You can even access your My UPS account for even more features like creating and email shipping labels.
Learn more about UPS Mobile and download your free apps here.
But be careful your office may never see you again. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
Just Say No to Missed Deliveries
February 2012
Ever arrive home to find one of those frustrating missed delivery notices waiting for you? Last October UPS launched a new feature that helps you receive your packages on your time.
UPS My Choice is a free and easy service that allows you to create email, voice, or text alerts for your expected packages so you know where they are and when they will arrive and all this without the hassle of a tracking number. Not going to be home? Have it delivered to our convenient UPS Store location or held for pickup at the UPS customer center. You also have the choice of rerouting the delivery to another address and authorizing UPS to deliver packages without a signature.
Signing up for your free UPS My Choice account in a breeze. Simply sign up online here and follow the 5 easy steps. All you need is an email address, contact information, and delivery address(es). You can add first-name variations (like a nick-name) and multiple household members. Do you have a business or do you receive frequent regular packages? You can upgrade your free My Choice account to a Premium Membership. This will give you the added benefits of managing and tracking your packages with a convenient online calendar, designate a specific area where you would like the driver to leave your package, get a confirmed two hour window for a delivery and reschedule the delivery of a package.
Your packages on your time? It’s about time.

Happy New Year!
January 2012
We hope you all enjoyed your Holidays. We’ve got some exciting things happening in 2012. One of our New Year Resolutions is to become a little more “social” in 2012. We are now doing email marketing, social media and also will be blogging on our website. We think these are great ways to reach out to our current customers and also potential customers. We will be sharing great deals, local events, specials from local businesses, handy tips, fun contests, interesting trivia and more! Please click on the links on our front page to go to our Facebook or Twitter pages.
Speaking of resolutions, here are a few from our Manager’s:
• To become more organized.
• To read more books and watch less TV.
• To learn a new language.
• To continue providing the best customer service around.
• To spend more time with the kiddos.
Here is a great inspirational quote for 2012: “Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.” –Einstein.
Happy New Year from the team at UPS Belcamp and AP Self Storage!
