Isn't that it?

I'm in southwest PA area also. Many of my UPS deliveries also also filthy. I do think it probably occurs at the hub. The black stuff on the bags and boxes rubs off on your hands when handled and you must be careful lifting the boxes as the the black stuff comes off on your clothes. Today UPS delivered two boxes, both were clean, but the guy didn't even bring them up to the front door. I heard him arrive then a kerplumk. He dropped them off by the garage door. They weren't that heavy that he/she couldn't have brought them up the steps, I carried both up at one time. Must be a sub, most other drivers bring them to the door.

UPS doesn't believe me & says it's not their fault. That's the reason I saved the bags (in a box in my cellar ),so that I could show them that it's not just one (1) random bag, but EVERY bag they deliver. But this is the first that I called it to QVC's attention. My fault there. I e-mailed QVC customer service & they also monitored this Message Forum on the subject. QVC answered me with a lovely phone call this morning & are contacting UPS about all of these customer complaints about the dirty bags. We do believe that it has to do with my southwest PA area UPS distribution hub & probably their belt system being filthy, if that's what is causing this dirty problem. FED EX must not use the same type of system or they are keeping it clean. Same with the U.S. Post Office. Neither one delivers filthy, dirty plastic bags to me. Thanks to all of you for your stories & thanks to QVC for their immediate response. Let's all hope something better comes from this.

Wow, this bag thread sure puts life's little trivialities in perspective.

If one only orders from Qvc or elsewhere once a month (or less) I would agree with you. Many of us order much more than that and from many vendors that ship via UPS (giving us no choice). Regardless of where I buy, the bags arrive filthy from UPS. Yes, it's a big deal.

I get dirty bags almost every time from UPS. Some of them have so much grit on them, I can shake it off. It's not just one UPS hub. Mine go through several places to get to me. Yea, I've seen those tracks and gray marks all over the packages. Why I didn't complain, I was at a chain clothing store, they receive all their mdse through UPS, and the manager I knew told me that all their packages (store distribution center in OH) come the same way. I was picking up an online order and it was as bad as the QVC packages. The manager complained to the UPS and it stopped somehow. I guess she got the home office to do something about it.
QVC box I got today, it's grimy, oh well.
I never thought to complain, though, seems UPS needs to do some housekeeping chores.

Thank you...so funny! If I could give you a dozen hearts, I would!
Loved the monkey in the last scene, in his brown suit.
My UPS guy is nice enough and competent, but probably doesn't realize I can see him from my desk when he comes to the door. I've never seen him relieving himself, but he's always yakking on his cell phone!

I haven't read any post that inferred dirty bags from UPS is a world crisis. Still there is no reason why one carrier in my area continually delivers filthy, beat up bags. I think retailers should know about the condition of their packaging.
