Based on what the local guys at the NDC and SCFs up here have said its moving once it clears the NDC. But it's created a choke point from a combination of workers being out with covid or quarantining because they got exposed, the usual holiday rush, the increased online sales from people shopping at home for holiday gifts and the increase in people doing all their shopping at home to avoid stores. They literally didn't have space inside to unload anymore trucks to bring stuff in to be scanned when I talked to them so that was 80 trailers worth of stuff that had been "accepted" but not sorted. FedEx seems fine still. UPS is slightly delayed but usable.I noticed the shipping complaints here and checked my own sales—indeed nothing has moved much since the first of December. A pair of shoes headed to Japan have made it the farthest: 18 miles to the USPS distribution center in only four days!
Does anyone know if stuff is moving, just not getting scanned, or is it not moving at all.
Is one of the other shippers doing any better? It sounds like all are affected, but I’d be willing to switch if there was a better option.
Last, this is just seasonal, right? Well get back to normal after they catch up from the Christmas crush?
