Currently, I’m preparing a shipment that I will be sending out to China via Origin Post. It’s going to take about a week to prepare it. In addition, there’s some delays in the USPS systems, so I’m sure that some of the packages will be held up for a while before they can get to me. This is all very frustrating!
USPS forgets to scan the package’s arrival
Often, you may notice that your USPS tracking isn’t updating. This may be due to a few different reasons. Some of them are caused by unexpected events or bad weather, such as heavy rain or thunderstorms. You can call customer service for more information. Other times, it could be that the person scanning your package is on leave or has finished their shift.
Another reason that your tracking may not update is that the barcode for your package is broken. This can prevent scanning at a different location. If the barcode is broken, it won’t give the proper code to a scanner, so you won’t get an update.
Packages can also be lost or broken. If you think that you have a lost package, make sure to call USPS Customer Service and ask. You can also go to the facility where the package was scanned. This way, you will have more details about the shipment.
USPS is experiencing delays in updating their systems
Whether you’re shipping a package, mailing a letter, or using the Postal Service, tracking your package can be tricky. Sometimes, packages get lost or get held up in the system for uncontrollable reasons. If you have questions about how to track your package, contact USPS customer service. You can also use a package management application to check your package’s status.
When you purchase online, you need to know when your package will arrive. USPS offers tracking numbers on most of its services. When your package arrives at a distribution center or postal facility, an employee scans it, and the tracking number updates. You can check your tracking on USPS’ website or through their text messaging service.
If you haven’t received a tracking update in a few days, your package may be held up at the facility because it’s sitting in the back of a truck or a delivery van. Or, the person who scanned it may have finished their shift, and the tracking number may not be updated.
Packages are being sorted at another country’s postal service
‘Origin post is preparing shipment’ is a term used by the USPS to describe different stages of a package’s shipment. It’s meant to reassure customers that a parcel is on its way to the next stop in its journey.
It’s a vague term, and you may not be able to tell exactly when a package is ready for shipment. However, it’s important to remember that most USPS packages go through a series of stages before they arrive at the final destination.
When a package arrives at a USPS facility, the postal workers sometimes forget to scan the package once it arrives. This may lead to delays or other problems. Sometimes, a package will sit at a USPS facility for days before it’s processed.
Other reasons packages might get stuck include inclement weather, aircraft maintenance issues, and weather-related traffic issues. If any of these reasons occur, the package will not receive a tracking update until it reaches the next destination.
Packages are being held at a China Post EMS bin
Messages from the USPS that say Origin Post is preparing shipment are vague, nondescriptive, and often mean that there will be a delay of one to two days in the delivery of a package. In some cases, USPS may experience a delay in delivery because of rainstorms, aircraft issues, or tropical storms. These delays may last days, weeks, or even months.
Depending on how much package traffic is going through the facility, USPS may use the message to let customers know that the originating post is preparing shipment. They do this for a number of reasons, including when a shipment is being held in a bin, and when an item is being held for a security check. However, the USPS is never transparent about what they do with the Origin Post message. The reason is that the Origin Post is used as a jump-off point for a package. This means that the USPS does not know what’s holding a package up at a particular facility, and may not even know why the package is being held up.
