I consider UPS business orientation a plus : I know when they show up. Tracking is the best of the bunch. For example : Farnell ships with UPS. Farnell is a mostly B2B electronic components distributor. EU experience from good to bad : UPS, Fedex, DPD, TNT and then DHL which is the worst from a receivers perspective. edit: I should add, running a business from a residential location.

DHL's estimated times are laughable wrong in my experience. So much for supposed German efficiency.

This is strange. In my experience, shipping Hungary to Canada works best with UPS or Fedex but from Canada to Hungary it's DHL or trouble. In general, to the entire EU I vastly prefer DHL.
