It’s wild that, according to the comments on the original video, they don’t lock trucks like that in some larger cities and just use zip ties cause it’s easier to cut them off than lock/unclock. You’d think that:
- FedEx would lock their stuff
- FedEx would hire security for those trucks
- people would hear about/see this more often
It’s pretty standard. I don’t work for FEDEX (or live in the US) and we seal our trucks with plastic ties. It’s not really there to stop people getting in, it’s there so that we can be sure nobody has once the truck makes it to its destination. If the seal is intact there is no way to open the truck, in order to open the truck you have to destroy the seal, and each seal has a unique identifier that will be on the paperwork.
If the seal is broken or doesn’t match we decline the delivery because we know the truck has been opened between the depot and us.
