Stimpythecat Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 What does it mean when your registered parcel is statused as "processed thru sort facility"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramviksrille Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Not much really. Probably the parcel is lying around waiting for its turn to be processed while the workers are having lunch or something... Some of mine us shipments have been like that for 3-4 days.

Rick James Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 I believe it means it's sorted and waiting to leave the sorting facility via the appropriate method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 I believe it means it's sorted and waiting to leave the sorting facility via the appropriate method. That's my take on it. Here in Mississippi, as in most states, the mail goes through one of several sorting facilities. Some of it is absurd, because I can mail a letter to a business here in town, the letter goes to Jackson MS, then back here. takes 2-4 days to go a quarter mile!!! One of the main purposes of the sorting facilities if I understand the concept corectly is to "Accumulate" batches of mail to send on to other destinations. So if you sent a watch to Miami Florida from Houston TX, it would go from your local post office to your main post office to a sort facility, there the mail is sorted, if yours was a Priority mail package it would be bundled with other packages going to Miami,trucked to the closest airport facility, put on a plane and delivered to Miami. If it's a registered or first class, it would go by truck from the sort facility to the destination facility in the destination city then to a post office for delivery.
