Why does USPS take so long to ship packages?
There can be some difficulties that lead to the delay in the working of the USPS. For example, one after the other public holiday causes the rise in the number of unattended packages. At that time, USPS skips the scanning of the packages to cope up with the delay as additional scanning would call for more processing time.
