they had news stories about how USPS had rented a warehouse in Oak Creek WI just south of Milwaukee the primary processing hub for WI and some packages were 3 weeks old at Christmas. I am hoping if things slow down with demand they will catch up by 2-1-2021
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Yesterday I received two pair of wool socks I ordered on December 4, 2020.
It only took USPS a little over a month to deliver them. They're just a bunch of regular speed demons. LOL

I ship a lot of parts for our business. UPS and Fed ex do good job. we ship primarily UPS and they have been on time even thru the Holidays. You guys need to compare costs - UPS has volume discounts and they now offer flat rate boxes - bigger and cheaper than the post office. I only use the post office for Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. They do good until they drop your small packages off at the USPS .

I think what's happening is they've just located the parts for the disassembled sorting machines that the Postmaster General had removed from the POs', and then taken apart.
If anybody out there has a schematic for these sorting machines, PLEASE CONTACT your local post office. I guess the lesson here is, you can't have something both ways!

Not a package but I mailed my oldest son in Richmond VA a Christmas card with a check in it on Dec. 16th and he still has not received it. Don't know what to think or course of action at this point other than to just wait?
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

I sent some paperwork 3 day with signature required from Indiana to Iowa and it's been 9 days and it says in transit. What a joke, if they loose it I am going to be really (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman)!!
