I mailed a package with USPS Thursday afternoon, the tracking number still does not show up in their system meaning I can't track my package, which causes me concern. Never had the slightest problem before with this.
Anyone else having the problem?

The USPS and Fedex are both incredibly inefficient recently. Mail and packages get hung up in large city sorting centers for 5-6 days. Expect 5-6 days minimum for first class, no matter how close. UPS is running right on track

It takes a little time. I’ve sold things to people, sent the tracking number, ten minutes later they are pissed, cause number doesn’t show in system yet.

The USPS tracking system is a farce. Always has been, and has just gotten worse with the current crisis. I've ordered a couple of items that took forever, one sitting in SLC for about two weeks. It was a used book I ordered off Amazon, so no big deal. The seller assumed it was lost, refunded my money, and a few days later the book arrived in the mail!
The tracking seems to tell you "It's out there somewhere and it will arrive some day." Pretty vague as to the item's exact whereabouts.
Our local post office lady told me they are getting volume at holiday levels but no extra staff like they usually hire for the holidays. Makes sense.
The item will eventually reach its destination - probably. Hope it works out for you.

I normally get the "Your package has been received." status about an hour after I drop off and pay for a USPS Priority Mail item. If your tracking number does not show "some status" by noon on Tuesday, I would be at the PO Tuesday afternoon to follow up.

USPS is truly hit or miss...
Hopefully the Trump admin will put in place an EO that postal workers can be fired.
This will change a lot!

Anyone else having the problem? Lately the USPS is being a biotch. I was tracking a package a couple weeks ago and it stayed at one location (about 30 miles from the sellers location) for 6 days....
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

The USPS seldom updates it's tracking after the point of origin. It'll just say 'in transit' until you receive it.

Sometimes they get it right.
I ordered a butt-plug on the 20th. 1st class mail. Tracking says it is here on the 24 - went thru NJ even.

I'll go in later and check POB just to see if it is real.

Make that yesterday- the 23rd. Says it arrived at 6:40, in box about 10:30. On line order on 20th. Pretty good! If it is there.
Got a M70 bedding job going- will check later.

I overheard the Lady at the post office Say its as busy or busier than it is during Christmas- due to peoples fear of going out shopping so they’re doing online ordering.
She said things are taking a day or two extra.

I had half a dozen packages making laps around Nashville for 3 or 4 days before about half of them arrived Saturday. The others are still making laps. Under normal conditions, they are here the day after they 1st hit Nashville.

I like getting stuff UPS. Main hub is less than a mile away as the crow flies. Check its status. Put a hold on it . Pick up in person at 9am.

My Postmaster would call me at 7:30AM and ask whether they should deliver, or would I like to come pick it up.............. He just retired last Friday, so now I have to start training a new one...........
