FedEx Ship Center

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a FedEx employee found an old, dusty violin in one of the shipping boxes. Curious neighbors started dropping off strange items they’d forgotten or never noticed before. Soon enough, the FedEx Ship Center became a makeshift lost-and-found paradise. A delivery driver found an expired library card, while another neighbor dropped off her long-lost wedding veil. The manager joked that next would be a missing cat or a forgotten anniversary ring—maybe even both together.

2. One day, while sorting packages on the loading dock, a FedEx driver noticed something unusual—a small, mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with twine. No label, no return address, just a simple note scribbled in pencil: 'For someone who needs it most.' The driver opened it curiously—inside was an old photo of a smiling child, a single piece of candy, and another note: ‘Happy Halloween!’ Turns out, it was from a neighbor who forgot to deliver trick-or-treat goodies last year. Everyone had a laugh, and that became the best annual tradition.

3. At dawn, when most people were still asleep, a FedEx driver noticed something strange—a small, glowing package among the ordinary boxes. Curious, he opened it gently and found inside a note saying, ‘Dear FedEx, please deliver my package with care—especially since I forgot to include what’s inside.’ The driver smiled, shook his head, and drove off, wondering if anyone ever actually sent packages filled with nothing but laughter.

4. At sunrise, when the streets were quiet, a FedEx driver whistled as he sorted packages. Suddenly, he exclaimed, ‘What’s this?’ In his hand was an envelope addressed to ‘The Morning Postman, c/o Sunrise Lane.’ Curious, he opened it and found a note reading: ‘Please deliver this package anywhere but here.’ The driver laughed, shook his head, and tossed the envelope into the next box. At noon, a regular came in asking for his usual package. ‘It arrived,’ said the driver, grinning, ‘but only after a little detour!’
