FAQs

Why are UPS shipments being delayed? ›

Severe weather, natural disasters, and other conditions beyond our control can occasionally delay or disrupt our UPS services.

There could be several reasons why your UPS package is taking longer than expected to arrive. Some common reasons include weather delays, high package volume during peak seasons, incorrect or incomplete address information, customs clearance delays for international shipments, and unexpected transportation issues.

If your shipment's UPS tracking is not updating, it could be that the package is yet to be picked up by the courier or that it has been picked up but yet to be scanned.

There could be several reasons why your UPS package has not moved for several days. It could be due to weather conditions, customs clearance delays, or a backlog of packages at the UPS facility.

Strikes, labor disputes, or shortages can lead to a backlog of shipments, delaying deliveries across the board. These issues are often interlinked with broader supply chain issues, where any disruption in one part of the chain can have a domino effect, causing delays in other areas.

Processing at UPS facility means that the package has arrived at a UPS sorting facility and is being sorted and processed for delivery. This includes scanning the package, sorting it based on its destination, and loading it onto the appropriate delivery truck or plane.

UPS® Ground deliveries take between 1 to 5 days. USPS Priority deliveries take 1 to 3 days.

Check back periodically for shipment progress updates. How late will UPS deliver? UPS Ground packages are generally delivered anytime Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. (and sometimes later) to residences, and to business addresses during their normal business hours.

UPS may make up to three delivery attempts at its discretion at your address on regular UPS delivery days. After the final attempt, undeliverable packages will be returned to the sender.

If the tracking showed progress but has stalled for a few days and says "In Transit," it may just be taking a little longer to move from one checkpoint to another. UPS will ask you to check back the following day for an update. If you don't see an update after 3-5 days, please contact our Community Experience team.

What to do if my package hasn't updated? ›

If there has been no change in tracking status within 24 hours of arriving at your local Post Office™ AND no delivery has occurred, use your tracking number and submit a service request to your local Post Office™.

There are a few reasons why your package status may not be updated right away: If you drop your package off after hours, USPS or UPS won't scan it in until the next day. It's in queue at a USPS or UPS facility. The postal workers or UPS workers scanning packages simply didn't get to it that day.

If the package couldn't simply be left, the tracking status will show UPS InfoNotice was left. If no InfoNotice is present, it means the package either hasn't been delivered or has been lost or misplaced. If your package's status shows a missing delivery, your first step is to contact the shipper.
