Let's not kid ourselves, UPS and Fedex both handle a bazillion cartons per day. To think that our precious cargo is going to experience TLC while enroute is off the mark.
My experience is that shippers do not do what they should to pack shipment well, and that results is damage.
Like I say, the majority of the time, damage is the result the corrugated boxes used, as well as the dunnage, and how it is packed, and less how UPS and Fedex handle the shipments.
My 2 cents.

PS, I don't work for either company, but ship about 1,500 cartons per day out of our distribution center.
