How long would it take a small box from Illinois to New York shipped by US priority mail?
http://www.usps.com/serviceperformance/ “Priority Mail Priority Mail is predominantly a two/three-day ground and air product. The vast majority of Priority Mail is scheduled for delivery within two days, with some volume delivered overnight. Priority Mail rates can be determined by weight and travel distance or by using Priority Mail Flat Rate products which have a fixed rate regardless of distance. ” http://postcalc.usps.gov/ can be used to estimate both shipping cost and delivery times. I used a 1lb 0oz package from 60601 (Chicago, IL) to 10001 (New York, NY), shipping date today 3/6/2008 at 5pm, expected delivery is 2 days. So, 2 days from now is 3/8/2008. So, I would say that the person should see their package by Saturday 3/9/2008 the latest if you shipped by US Priority Mail.
