What to Know About UPS in Homestead, Florida

Homestead, Florida, located in Miami-Dade County, has a population of approximately 69,910 residents.

UPS operates in Homestead, leveraging the area's established infrastructure that includes major roadways such as U.S. Route 1 and the Florida Turnpike. This access to major highways assists in efficient transport routes, reducing transit times to and from major distribution centers.
