2020 Holiday Shipping Schedule

DELAYS! DELAYS! DELAYS!

A note from FedEx:

The COVID-19 outbreak has disrupted supply chains around the world. We're continuing to operate in impacted areas as local conditions and restrictions allow.
We have suspended our money-back guarantee for all FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, FedEx Freight and FedEx Office services effective immediately until further notice.
We’ve suspended Signature Required for most shipments.

A note from USPS:

As a result of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, Postal Service^TM Priority Mail® products and First-Class^TM packages may temporarily experience delivery delays due to limited transportation availability.
All classes of mail besides Priority Mail Express, which is our only guaranteed service, are subject to employee and transportation availability. Although these services provide an expected delivery date, it is only a prediction and all mail can take anywhere from 3-30 days to reach their destinations.
Please be assured, the Postal Service’s goal is to move packages as expeditiously as possible, and we are committed to ensuring timely processing and delivery of essential packages. The Postal Service continually reviews its network capacity to provide the American public reliable, efficient, and fast delivery service.

Be prepared and order early! National delays with UPS, FedEx and USPS are occurring with packages.
