From the point your order is made to the point it is delivered, you get relevant updates on the current status of your package. But lately, customers have been confused with the update \u201cpackage is shipped.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What does it mean when your package is shipped? Does it mean that your package is coming today? Is this term the same as “delivered”?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You’re in the right place if you\u2019ve found yourself asking any of the above questions and other related ones. This article will answer all your questions with detailed explanations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The process it takes for an order to be fulfilled has always confused customers. After the order has been made, it will have to be labeled and packaged appropriately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After it has been prepared for shipping, it will be delivered to the courier. Some of the top delivery couriers in the United States are Amazon, UPS<\/a>, USPS<\/a>, DHL<\/a>, and FedEx<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once the package has been shipped to the delivery courier, it is transported to the destination address. Although, depending on the courier used, it could be done themselves or handed over to another courier for final delivery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This courier will deliver it to the final destination, termed a last-mile delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This implies that your package has been handed over to the delivery courier. To further explain, it implies that the seller has transported your package and<\/strong> delivered it to the courier<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This courier will then have to transport the package directly to you or hand it to another courier for last-mile delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After receiving an update that your package has been shipped, you may assume the package has been delivered. Well, that is not the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shipped implies that your package has been handed over to the delivery courier. This courier will be the one to complete the second (transit<\/a>) and maybe the third phase of delivery (last-mile delivery).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Delivered, on the other hand, implies that the package has been handed over to the recipients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When you order an item, you want it as soon as possible. If it were up to me, I\u2019d want it immediately after placing the order, but that is not the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Shipping time may take anywhere from a day to seven days. Larger items may even take longer, depending on the shipping option used by the seller. Other factors may cause shipping time to be long, such as<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is no straight answer to this question, as it depends on certain factors. This could be the shipping option (ground<\/a> or air shipping), the distance to your location, and the in-transit process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But generally, once a package has been shipped, it should take anywhere from 2 to 5 days to receive it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This update means that an error occurred while your package was being prepared for shipment<\/strong>. It is nothing serious and should be handled shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n No, it is not<\/strong>. The two updates send different messages to the customer. Shipping implies that the package has been labeled and packaged and is being transported to the delivery courier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When a package is out for delivery<\/a>, it means that your package has been loaded onto a truck heading to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, in general, when your order has been shipped, it means your package has been handed over to the courier. Afterward, it is delivered directly to you or another last-mile courier, depending on the delivery service used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It could take anywhere from 1 day to 7 days after receiving this update for your package to be delivered. But it may also take longer if an issue is encountered while en route to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You should also see what the USPS update “your package is on its way to a USPS facility”<\/a> means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks for reading.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" From the point your order is made to the point it is delivered, you get relevant updates on the current … <\/p>\nWhat does it mean when your package is shipped?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
