Are packages still being delivered?

I ordered something online a few days ago, but I'm afraid it won't arrive on time because of everything being shutdown.

Delivery services are being considered essential. But since online ordering is [b]WAY[/b] up almost all delivery services are swamped with orders. Amazon Prime orders are taking a week to 10 days for delivery.

@Zaphod42 I received my packages from Amazon in two days.

@JeanAnna Maybe it’s just in my area then. Of my last 4 orders with them 3 took a week to 10 days to be delivered, and the last thing I ordered is estimated to be a month from the order date.

@Zaphod42 Wow, that is a long time. Maybe what you have ordered is hard to find? I have no idea. Just hope things get back to normal for all of us very soon.

@JeanAnna I drive ride share, and a few days ago a passenger spilled a container of red sauce on my cargo carpet mat. Since most services are closed around here right now and I wasn’t sure where to go have it cleaned I just ordered the “amazon’s choice” replacement rubber cargo mat. 🤷‍♂️

@Zaphod42 Ouch...what a mess. Most of the hardware stores around here are still open. Lowes, Ace Hardware, Home Depot, etc. And even a nursery is open.... but they don't have their shrubs or flowers for sale yet.
