Stuck or normal?
Normal here: 6 to 36 hours. Most packages leave the same day or the next. After "Departed from Facility" on a long ground trip, 1 to 3 days with no new scan is normal because trucks don't scan between hubs.
Act if: no new scan for 3 business days. Weekends and federal holidays don't count.
At peak, trailers can sit in the yard waiting to be unloaded. Packages in those trailers don't get a new scan until they're inside, so a 2 to 4 day gap can happen without the package being lost. These are rules of thumb from how UPS's network works, not a UPS promise. How we set them.
What to do if your package is stuck here
- Wait until there's been no new scan for 3 business days. Ground packages often go 1 to 3 days without a scan while on a truck.
- Ask the sender to open a trace with UPS. UPS treats the shipper as its customer, so this usually gets the fastest answer.
- You can also use "Report a Problem" or chat from the UPS tracking page.
