USPS Shipping Update 2025

Why is my package still in Pre-Shipment?

We have seen a drastic increase in the number of packages that leave our warehouse and then live in the limbo of pre-shipment for multiple days. Often the package is delivered before the tracking status changes from Pre-Shipment. If you have a package that is stuck in Pre-Shipment for longer than 10 days, please reach out to us at orders@blackwhiteroasters.com.

Why is my package so far from me? 

USPS sorting errors can lead to your package moving further away from you, rather than on its standard shipping path. Your package is still on the way to you, it will just take a few more days due to the reroute.

I paid for faster shipping but my package did not arrive when it was supposed to.

As long as it is not a federal holiday, we ship your package out the same day that you receive your shipping confirmation email. Because of the current USPS shipping climate, we cannot guarantee that your package will arrive in the time window that you pay for.

Why is shipping taking so long? 

We have noticed delays and shipping errors with USPS across the country. Please account for shipping to take around 10–14 days.
