I have been waiting on something that was supposed to be delivered last Tuesday, it arrived at my local distributiom center 4 days ago, still "in transit arriving late" I have packages tracking that are from the next state over going half way across the country.
Round and round and never in my mailbox.

Anyone else?

Receiving packages about every 2-3 days for the last two weeks, all on time, no issues.

Yep. I've got one that I've been waiting on for 3 weeks. It usually only takes 3 or 4 days. It's been sitting in Kentucky. I get the same message as you. I asked about it at the Post Office today and I was told "one day, it'll just show up in your mailbox". This was after I mailed 4 boxes to my kids, out of state, for the grandbabies. NOT HAPPY!!!

Providence RI is unable to handle all of the mail this season and they are diverting it to other USPS locations for storage until they can process it.

Just yesterday? I think this is gonna wind up a huge scandal on the USPS.

On a different note. I usually hate UPS, but they have been on time and delivering to the right address! Amazing.

Re: No Thread on USPS package clusterf##k?
I always mail packages through FedEx 2 day air. I'm assuming the large package I dropped off at noon yesterday is delayed because of the snow in the northeast. They're usually pretty good about updates, but I'm only getting updates every 12 hours. Frustrating.

My.daughters birthday was the 9th. Didnt get her birthday prezzies in time, but.luckily christmas was around the corner so I was able to swap out with some christmas gifts. Not as I had planned it, but catastrophe averted. I am pretty upset with the post office right now.

My mail carrier says he hasnt had a day off since thanksgiving. He has worked 7 days a week and i see him driving through with packages at 6am and bringing my letter mail at 6pm. They are working their people to death.

I won't be upset with them unless the boxes don't get delivered to the kids on time. My post office guy said they would be there before Christmas. I'm holding him to it!

 Quoting: Torgo


Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that, but at the same time, I'm glad the seller of the thing I just ordered decided to use FedEx instead of USPS. It's coming all the way across the country and it's one of the few things I've ordered that I'm really excited to get.

I sent some books media mail halfway across the country just a week or two ago and they got to their destination right on schedule with no issues.

Hope you guys get your packages in a timely fashion!

Re: No Thread on USPS package clusterf##k?
I went to drop off a letter in the mail and the three outside bins they had were all overflowing with mail you couldnt even put anymore in

But i didnt want to wait for 1 hour in the post office package line so i just put it at the top with some other people who had done they same

Inside the letter i was mailing was a tax payment so hopefully it makes it to the destination.

My usps carrier is so lazy when my neighbors park their car in front of their mailbox she puts all their mail in my mailbox

I get their mail like 2x a week and have to give it to their mailbox

Our UPS driver is awesome and Fedex is okish but Fedex has random drivers and a ton quit/lose packages occasionally. I get a ton of packages delivered to my address from Fedex that are streets 2-3 over from mine it nakes no sense. I usually redeliver them but it is like the drivers are on meth or trolling me

You will get your package. I waited for almost a month on mine but recieved two days ago. They are just backed up due to the holidays, as is every year. Yes probably moreso this year due to our circumstances, but you will get your package eventually. I know it is frustrating that tracking is not bieng updated. Mine never updated it just came.

No, THIS has never happened before. It has very little, if anything, to do with Christmas. It could have EVERYTHING to do with Covid, but the poster above you is right. I've been watching my package sit in Tennessee and now, in Kentucky for over 3 weeks. IT'S NOT MOVING AT ALL!
