Tracking Facts:
-
Delivery Confirmation Tracking usually provides 4 entries.
1) When
it leaves our shipping warehouse, 2) when it reaches the Warrendale, PA
sorting facility, 3) when it reaches the sorting facility nearest you,
4) and when your postman delivers you package.
-
If a package is return by your post office to us the tracking
will also reflect this movement back to the sorting facility near you.
-
If a package is misrouted it will show entries for any sorting facilities
along the way.
-
Once your package reaches the sorting facility nearest you, you
can expect your package in a day or two.
-
The process starts when we request postage for your
package. Our computer communicates with USPS computers and retrieves
the delivery confirmation number (tracking) and notifies them of
impending shipment. At 4:15 EST each day (including many postal
holidays) the central postal courier picks up your package (along with
many others) at our shipping warehouse and takes it to the 1st stop in
Johnston, Pa. From there it is taken to the regional sorting facility
in Warrendale, PA where it is scanned. From there it is loaded on a
truck, train, or plane (depending on the type of shipping you
purchased) and is Enroute to the sorting facility nearest you. There
it is scanned and sent to your local post office and your carrier.
Your carrier will scan your package when he places it in your mailbox.
It sometimes takes up to 12 hours for the post office computers
to update.
-
We use "state of the art" labeling
software that not only prints your label but compares the mailing
address you gave us with the USPS master address database for accuracy
(It is amazing the number of people who do not know there proper
address), and the printed bar code includes not only your zip+4 but
also the carrier route number so your package gets to you as quickly
as possible.
