Holiday Shipping Deadlines for USPS, UPS and FedEx in 2022

POSTED BY

Ding-dong! Delivery! For friends and family far away at Christmas, getting them their holiday gift to unwrap in time takes a little extra planning. That means you need to pack it and get the package on its merry way by a specific deadline — depending on the delivery service, delivery option and expected arrival date. Remember, the longer you wait, the more expensive it will be to ship a package.

Here are the shipping deadlines for 2022:

United States Postal Service (USPS) 

Recommended send-by dates for expected delivery before December 25

For Contiguous U.S. (Lower 48 States):

USPS Retail Ground Service by Saturday, December 17

First-Class Mail Service by Saturday, December 17

Priority Mail Service by Monday, December 19

Priority Mail Express Service by Friday, December 23

For Alaska and Hawaii, packages need to be sent by December 17 for First-Class Mail Service and Priority Mail Service. And December 21 for Priority Mail Express Service.
