How long does a card take to the mail

The time it takes for a card to arrive in the mail can vary depending on several factors, including:

1. Distance: The farther the card needs to travel, the longer it will take to arrive.
2. Mail service: The type of mail service used can impact delivery time. For example, First Class Mail is generally faster than Priority Mail.
3. Processing time: The time it takes for the card to be processed and sorted at the post office can also affect delivery time.
4. Weekends and holidays: Mail is not typically processed or delivered on weekends and holidays, which can add to the overall delivery time.

Here are some general guidelines for delivery times for different types of mail:

• First Class Mail (1-3 business days):
  • Local: 1-2 business days
  • Regional: 2-3 business days
  • National: 3-5 business days
• Priority Mail (1-3 business days):
  • Local: 1-2 business days
  • Regional: 2-3 business days
  • National: 3-5 business days
• Standard Mail (3-14 business days):
  • Local: 3-5 business days
  • Regional: 5-7 business days
  • National: 7-14 business days

Keep in mind that these are general estimates, and actual delivery times may vary depending on your specific location and the mail service used.

If you're sending a card to a specific location, you can use the USPS's online tool, "Calculate a Delivery Time," to get a more accurate estimate of delivery time.
