Now it will probably go to UPS mail innovations that don’t even use UPS trucks or UPS facilities at all.
I used to pick up Mail Innovations in the past. Thick Yellow bags from smaller volume companies I assume. Envelopes and small catalogues from what I saw. After that no Teamsters touched it I’m sure like your image above.

I have a company on my route that ships out thousands of packages a night with mail innovations not all of them in those yellow bag.

I’ll be on the dock next to them and it’ll be a random contractor loading it on a semi taking it to the UPS mail innovations facility

Well we do pick them up. I've been picking up quite a lot of those yellow bags from my retail side of my route well before peak (Gamestop and Barnes & Noble) 20-25 bags daily. It will be a nightmare if Macys and Gap start shipping their stuff Innovation now that surepost is done.

Yes, we do pick it up if it’s a small amount and we bring it back to the hub and then some other contractor comes and takes it away.

But at large shippers like I’m talking about that I bumped docks with, they just send a contracted trailer out to pick it up and take it back to the UPS mail innovations facility.
