How long does it take for a letter to get to California, using USPS reg mail, from texas?

Question

i sent a letter to my boyfriend in california, i live in texas, i sent it saturday around 6[after the 3o'clock pick up time] he still hasn't received it, so by when should i expect for the letter to get there?

Answer 1

I'll make a long story short, because there are a lot of variables, e.g., exactly where did you mail it, how close are you to a large city, exactly where is your bf, is his address EXACTLY correct?  But, usually, you can count on about 5 business days.  My best guess is that he should get it no sooner than Friday.

Answer 2

Should be within a week.

Sometimes it takes longer, about 14 days. but that's unusual.

If he hasn't gotten it after 14 days, assume it's lost or stolen.
