They pick the snake up at your house. They will then take it to the closest FedEx World Service Center. From there it get loaded onto a semi and taken to the Hub. From their it will go through a system where it gets loaded onto the planes. Then when it arrives the next morning at the hub closest to its destination. It will get sorted and loaded onto another semi and taken to the closest FedEx World Service Center. Then it will get sorted a last time and loaded onto the delivery trucks. Then they will make their First Over Night deliveries. Then their Priority Over Night deliveries. Then Standard shipments after that. And that's just FedEx Express. FedEx Ground is a different game.

We do offer controlled temps but its not part of the standard shipping process. You have to ship custom critical in order to get controlled temps. Then its a whole different ball park.
FedEx Temperature Control

p.s. I work for FedEx

Might be that way in your neck of the woods and your Hub, But my Drivers in summer have AC blasting in the Newer Vans they drive, And winter have Heat. Not all places have the new Vans. The heat/ac coming from the dash board is enough to keep the truck a steady temp.

My Hub has the old UPS style trucks for Express, and the newer ones they are converting over to.
