I disagree with this move. But it's "in some markets".

It goes against "absolutely, positively, has to be there," their early slogan.

FedEx is suspending Sunday residential delivery in certain U.S. markets starting next month, a move that comes amid pleas from its independent contractors in recent months for more compensation and a moderation in package volumes.

The service cutback for FedEx Ground starts the week of Aug. 15 and is targeted for areas with smaller populations, a company memo to some contractors said Thursday. The decision reflects a “continuous focus on improving efficiency and reducing costs,” the company said.
