UPS does not commit a time for the Ground service. The tradeoff with the lower rate is that it gets scheduled with the most convenient stop on the driver's route. It could be a morning delivery, or , it could be an evening delivery. It's simply guaranteed to arrive on the date requested. If you're package needs to arrive by a certain time on the date requested you have two options; 1) schedule delivery for the day before the items are needed and hold in refrigeration/freezer overnight (all product except live crabs/lobster) or 2) upgrade to one of the more expensive UPS Air options that offers a specific commitment time so you'll be sure to have the package arrive in time for your event.
