What you need to know about the 2020 shipping holiday deadlines

0 Comments

One of the most important parts of holiday shipping preparation for every e-commerce brand is knowing which carrier services to use and when to accommodate last-minute shoppers. Knowing which services are available until which dates, is crucial for retaining customer satisfaction.


Last posting date is a specific date that items need to be shipped to make it to a destination on time. For e-commerce retailers, these dates must factor in both the amount of time between ordering and dispatching an item and transit time, or the number of days it takes for the item to arrive at the customer.
