Northern Virginia Roll Call

I HATE THAT PLACE

 

my SOS bumper shipped out yesterday!

who can enlighten me on how 3PL shipping works w/ Fastenal?

 

Nice man are you swapping out bumpers?

 

y?

 

Its always a group of lazy out of shape women that requires 4x the amount of time to find your package. At the same time, if the package is more than 10 pounds than you get to hear their odyssey of survival in its retrieval. Atleast my last few packages really got UPS's moneys worth out of them.

 

then I'm REALLY hoping all the notes on the door work. haha because I dont want to hear those lazy bitches huff and puff about my lift.

 

Fastenal sucks more than UPS. There is no tracking number. You just have to wait until they call you to pick it up. Usually takes 2+ weeks

 

Yea man...honestly though my LT kit gave them a pretty good run. They were pretty gassed at just one of the two packages, the look on their face when there was one more...PRICELESS.

 

ughhhhhh shipping companies will be the death of me.

hahaha I would have asked them to help load it in the truck just to see their reaction.

 

Fastenal should call you as soon as it gets there to come pick it up

 

I have been using fedex for most of my shipping for a while, or even usps over ups. My local ups store is a bunch of crooks, and are completely useless. For about the same price, fedex has been on top of things. When I bought my S/C, I had it held at my local fedex kinkos for no extra charge, and I came and picked it up when I got off work since it required signature. They also do a good job of packaging things. When I sold my old front bumper cover, I had it shipped up north somewhere. The dude spent probably half an hour with bubble wrap and packing tape on it, and it made it in one piece. I think I tipped the dude $20 for the awesome job he did on it.

 

They supply a tracking number now and it only took a week to get from sos

 

See... I used to do that when I lived in Herndon, now, not so much. But I would hear their bitches and gripes and then I'd say something smart ass like, "I thought you could use a workout" or say something off putting if I felt like being an asshole like, "better than dragging bodies or filling 10,000 sandbags for DFP's" they are always disgusted at the bodies part and flabbergasted by acronyms that they have no clue what they mean.

 

ahh... do you know where the facility is?

yep, I got a tracking number from SOS but it didnt work on the fastenal website

meh it depends on what kind of day I'm having haha

 

No just selling the OEM one from my 2014. Had a guy ask about fitment.

 

its in Sterling. Across from the Costco. 15 min from us.

 

not bad at all!

 

You'll have to look on fastenal website and find closest store. I contacted mine pre delivery and supplied them with the tracking number

 

ok cool... it looks like the one in Sterling is the closest, I'll call them this afternoon

 

so far, Fastenal customer service is outstanding... I emailed them from their website, the lady has already gotten back to me, given me the address and phone number, an ETA for my arrival, and was very upbeat and friendly.

she said about 7 days it should be here
