Shipping dates during the 2024 holidays

ecommerce

Running an e-commerce brand has a lot of benefits, but it’s not without challenges. One big hurdle relies on transportation companies – if of course you have your own courier service.

An e-commerce owner usually doesn’t feel the pressure of this partnership, but when big moments like a global sales campaign come around, it’s important to make sure your shipping partner has your back.

As 2024 draws to a close, every major shipping company is experiencing a holiday rush. In order for your packages to arrive on time, they kindly remind sellers to ship their goods by certain dates.

To help ease your stress and ensure your customers’ purchases arrive on time, we’ve compiled a list of deadlines from major shipping companies for domestic deliveries.

Don’t forget to inform your customers about the referral send-by expected delivery dates before December 25th and plan your shipping accordingly.
