Does FedEx deliver on the weekend? When your package will arrive.
In 1965 a Yale University student received an average grade on a paper he wrote proposing a new way to deliver time-sensitive material. That student, Frederick W. Smith, went on to create the Federal Express Corporation, now known as FedEx.
Founded in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1971, FedEx officially began operations on April 17, 1973 in Memphis, Tennessee. Memphis was chosen because of its central location and because the city airport was rarely closed due to bad weather, had extra hanger space and was willing to "make improvements for the operation," according to the company's official website.

There are thousands of FedEx drop boxes across the United States located at places like grocery stores, shopping centers and FedEx stores.
