Shipping delays - Indy

[WickedFog]

Anybody else experiencing long delays on their packages once they hit Indy?

Right here slick!!

Yeah. Package from California. Website says that delays from the wildfire causing it. But it's in Indy.

I sent out a package, via USPS, on Tuesday, into the Los Angeles area. Postal worker says it should be there next Monday. Let's see what happens.

How long has yours been in Indy?

Indy is a major hub, so like everything goes through here moving north to south and east to west. They just upgraded to a larger facility right before Christmas, so I am wondering if they are having some problems adjusting in the new building.

I think the packages are sneaking out the distribution center and taking a slight detour to Indy speedway for a extended race weekend and after take another short detour to Ohio and get lost by the porch pirates even though they aren't on the porch yet.

3 days

@WickedFog last I heard Indy was incredibly backed up to the point they stood up another facility to help which also became flooded.

Makes me wonder if it's not staffing issues.

Back in Dec I had packages delayed two weeks because of that. I spoke to a very informative lady at my local PO who called me 3 different days to keep me informed, and she told me all of that same stuff basically. But that all cleared up and I haven't seen any issues the last couple weeks. Which is why I was wondering if anybody else is now experiencing delays again.

I know when I send my parents anything from KY to Terre Haute it takes forever and a day, even if it's a letter. We have always joked that Terre Haute still uses the pony express.

Typically stuff hits TH for me in the early morning and is delivered that day. All my stuff bounces around 3 different distribution centers in Indy for a couple days. But this is the package that concerns me.

"Moving through Network" generally mean that they do have it...but where it is has yet to be determined.

It could mean it's stuck on the dock, been loaded on a truck, truck is stuck 30' up in trees on the side of I-65, etc. The last scan it sees is right before it gets loaded on a skid to go on a truck. But that doesn't mean it actually made it to a truck. So it could be anywhere right now.

That information has actually changed a few times. Dates changed, location changes, etc. It was actually supposed to have been delivered Monday.

It was actually supposed to have been delivered Monday.

So it’s still ahead of schedule from my recent deliveries

You didn’t have to send me one, but thank you

I’m awaiting a new pullstart that came from NY, I’m pretty sure it passes through that area to get to me here in SE Idaho.
The first estimated date was this Saturday now it’s not saying anything
