UPS Smart PickupSM

UPS Smart Pickup combines the predictability of an automatic Daily Pickup with the flexibility of requesting a pickup on demand. By having UPS come to your business only when you have a package to ship, you save money with our lowest rates, and you help us save fuel and reduce carbon emissions.

Description The UPS Smart Pickup scheduled pickup option automatically notifies a UPS driver when you have processed a shipment using UPS WorldShip® 2010, UPS Internet Shipping, or UPS CampusShip®. If a package is not processed by a predetermined notify time, no pickup will occur. If a package is processed after the predetermined notify time, you can schedule a UPS Smart Pickup for the following day, request a UPS On-Call Pickup, or find a UPS location to drop off your shipment.
Pricing Flat charge per week      $10.00

Details These details pertain to UPS Smart Pickup:

  • Select UPS Smart Pickup through Open an Account, Maintain Your UPS Account (select links at right to begin), or by calling 1-800-PICK-UPS®.
  • Customer must process a shipment:
    • Using UPS WorldShip® 2010, UPS Internet Shipping, or UPS CampusShip®
    • Using Schedule a Pickup on ups.com
    • Calling 1-800-PICK-UPS.
  • UPS Smart Pickup notify time will generally be one hour before your scheduled pickup time.
  • The scheduled pickup time is determined when you initiate the account.
  • This scheduled pickup option is designed for customers who do not need a Daily Pickup, but still want the convenience of an automatic pickup that doesn't require phone calls.
  • The first package of the day must be processed before the notify time in order to receive a pickup that same day. 
  • In the event that the first shipment of the day is processed after the notify time, you may:
    • Schedule a UPS Smart Pickup for the next business day.
    • Schedule a UPS On-Call Pickup® for the same day, if possible.
    • Find a UPS drop-off location.
  • This option is available to UPS account holders for all UPS services from any validated pickup location in the U.S.
  • Available Monday through Friday, excluding UPS holidays.
  • A weekly service charge will apply.
Benefits Along with predictability and flexibility, other benefits of UPS Smart Pickup include:

  • Once a pickup is scheduled, subsequent packages processed that day up until your scheduled pickup time will also be picked up by your UPS driver.
  • If you have a shipment after the UPS driver has made the scheduled pickup, you can always schedule a UPS On-Call Pickup. UPS Smart Pickup customers receive one UPS On-Call Pickup for air and international shipments per day at no extra charge for packages tendered at their usual pickup location. (Packages tendered at an alternate pickup location incur UPS On-Call Pickup fees.)
  • UPS Smart Pickup customers receive Daily published rates, our lowest rates available. 
  • UPS Smart Pickup customers will receive UPS PDF Invoice.

Note: For customers using UPS Worldship 2010 or later with multiple account numbers, shipments must be processed using a UPS Smart Pickup account number in order to initiate a UPS Smart Pickup. Processing a shipment with an account number other than UPS Smart Pickup will not automatically initiate a pickup.
