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.
