Hi I´m waiting for my package for long time TCK 9212490327616030465307 so, a few days ago appeared as delivered to me. not truth, then I went to the post office here in MN to ask about it and nothing there, at the next day I tracked the number again and was returned because You can´t contact me. I don´t understand. so the store where I bought it got my info. Thanks

I have a total of 4 packages that have been held up at this facility for days now. They were supposed to be delivered today! There is absolutely no reason for this hold up. Plus there is no tracking update and usps can't assist me cause they have no idea where my packages are!

Why is the mail box taped up in the morning. I drop off mail on my way to work about 4:30am and now the box is all taped closed in the morning. Do you think you could make it anymore inconvenient for residents. This is just not acceptable

My package shipped out from an APO in Germany. It arrived in Chicago a few days later and then to Kansas City. It floated around several Kansas City facilities for 8-9 days and then was shipped back to Chicago and then to Germany. It has now been shipped back to Chigaco to a different facility (Elk Grove) where no one will answer the phone. No luck in trying the automated phone, none of the prompts work correctly. Let's hope it actually comes back to Kansas City and I get my Christmas presents.

I have an Amazon order for a Nintendo Switch game called Danganronpa Decadence. It arrived at Elk Grove Village's distribution center and as far as I can tell, it's still there for some reason. It's been there for nine days. Nine days! It should have been in Galesburg by now. What is taking so long? Get my game delivered already. It's a Christmas present, for Pete's sake.

I have lived at the same address Since March 2020. AT & T called me last week and left a Voice Mail Message stating that my brill was returned as undeliverable and I needed to confirm my current address. I went to get Gas at BP Amoco and my card was declined. I'm on Auto pay with them. When I called them, they confirmed they received my payment, but my bill had been returned to them as undeliverable by the Post Office. So they froze my account. After I called and confirmed my address they restored my account. What is going on over there? This is unacceptable. What you are doing is affecting people's lives. Do you care????

Sad to hear that your military son is sending gifts from Japan. The package arrived in the United States and the package disappeared from his post office. Waiting for the arrival of the package, everyone mentioned that shipments were being delayed by COVID. I will not have a package and you cannot even charge insurance. The work of perhaps some who did not go further in their work is questionable.

Good afternoon! My parcel CL046881292RU returned to me. Please tell us why the package was not delivered to the city of Reno. Nevada, for Yulia Fedorova?? I was sending a dress and a souvenir for my friend. Why was the package returned? I'll quote from tracking: May 14, 2021: Left the USPS Regional Center. Your item left our USPS facility at the ELK GROVE VILLAGE IL DISTRIBUTION CENTER on May 14, 2021 at 7: 35 a.m. The product is currently en route to its destination. ELK GROVE VILLAGE DISTRIBUTION CENTER, But the destination is Reno. Nevada. And where did you send it? To Russia. What for? What should I do now? Pay for the shipment again?

My tracking number is 940551129837029254998. the item was shipped on April 23 2021 by USPS Priority Mail. I was to have received it around the 27. It's now May 11th and it still has not been received. What does Priority Mail guarantee? That it is guaranteed to get lost or arrive late? I need this order for some cabinet work I'm doing for a customer so I placed a second order for the same item with shipment by Priority Mail. I see that it got routed through Elk Grove again. I'm going to be very unhappy if it gets heldl up (or lost)? again. USPS was starting to drop the ball even before the pandemic so please no pandemic excuses. I had Priority mail items that got shipped by Parcel Select...6 weeks waiting to Hawaii where Priority normally comes in 3 or 4 days.

I called down there 5 times to see if there was some sort of problem. No one picks up the phone. You leave your name, number, and a brief message and no one calls you back. I had to open a search to finally get things moving. In the meantime, I had to deal with an upset customer.

Package sent 2/25/2021 to Philadelphia PA from Chicago suburbs by Priority Mail 2-day delivery. March 5 still not delivered to Philadelphia. Why would Chicago mail go from Elk Grove Village IL to OPA Locka FL to sit for 4-days before sending off to PA? Customers are paying for prompt delivery and not receiving what they pay for.

To echo a previous comment below, I sent a Priority Mail box from Voorhees, NJ, a Philadelphia suburb, to Staten Island, NY, on December 28th, due to arrive in Staten Island on 12/31. Can someone explain why this package would go to Elk Grove, IL, when it only had to travel 75 miles from NJ to Staten Island? I guess I'm lucky in that my package did depart Elk Grove on January 1st, but it's still "in transit to the destination." Lets see how long it takes to now travel back 819 miles to the east coast!

Seems I am not the only one with issues. I sent three packages out on the 16th of December, and 3 more on the 17th of December. All 6 packages went through this center. The three shipped on the 17th were completely delivered by noon yesterday, one of the ones shipped on the 16th was finally delivered today, and the other two are still sitting there... I paid extra to make sure they were there by Christmas. and according to the sign at my local post office, I shipped them well within the window for this to happen. I'm beyond livid.

Reading all of the reviews on here is just heartbreaking, I now realize that the gift ordered for my daughter to give to her father for Christmas has no chance of making it to me here in Maryland on time. Our package has been sitting in that place since December 7th and has not moved. My daughter is so disappointed she won't have her present to give him. He is a Marine Vet and all she wanted was to give her dad the present a hero deserved and because of this incompetent post office not only is our Christmas ruined but I can see it is affecting a lot of people. This is just not okay!

Why would a package mailed from a Philadelphia suburb (19001) be sent to an Illinois distribution center when it was to be delivered to Washington, DC?????? It is already 12 days past its expected delivery date!!!! I could have walked to DC and delivered it in person by now. This has nothing to do with COVID. It is due to poor and irresponsible, ineffective service and procedures.

I ordered a coat from Lands End on November 1, 2020 and the coat per tracking has been sitting in this center since November 5, 2020. I filled out a lost report on the USPS website and they were suppose to contact me once the issue was resolved, I've not heard a word! I've contacted Lands End for a refund and was told as long as it is in transit, they will not refund. I, the consumer is caught in the middle of this. Good luck to all of us getting this resolved.

I too have had many hiccups with this location, on face value though. Today I spoke to a very pleasant, helpful, sincere employee, Kelly. In regards to packages, Elk Grove is not a distribution center. All packages are turned around and sent to the district distribution center. She admitted even she cannot get answers as they are overwhelmed since the ballot mailings, on top of Covid causing a huge reduction in their personnel. I'm extremely.pissed off that my $85 in merchandise can't be located, believe me. But I also am empathetic to the issues being faced by these (mostly) fabulous very essential Americans. The phone number I reached her at, before the second ring and in the afternoon, day before Thanksgiving, was 847-439-5573

It's Nov. 18, 2020, and no activities. Please get your act straight. You're in possessions of a passport and evidence documents that I need for emergency travel. It is a crime to hold a person's passport and disrupt freedom of movement.

It appears that nothing will ever be done about the Elk Grove Village, Illinois Distribution center. I have had about 40 packages in the past 7 months stall going through this location. I have to file a missing package report to ever get it moving again. I have complained at the USPS 800 number and consumer affairs numbers and they really do not care. Nothing gets done. No wonder they say they are going bankrupt. My business relies on mailing packages. This is not acceptable when some that are taking weeks cost 40.00 to 100.00 to ship. This is what I am paying for? Really? Well I have just found out about UPS Sure post when most of the way UPS takes it but it is more affordable because USPS gets it in the end to deliver. Which is not bad because then my packages would bypass this lousy facility where EVERYONE should be fired and people that can DO a job should be hired. Not sure why the 800 number or consumer affairs can't do something about this place but I just sent a complaint to the Inspector General. I am sure that will go nowhere as well though......

Not sure why everyone's package seems to get delayed, go missing, get lost, stolen, at this particular location. What kind of racket is going on there? Already dozens and dozens of reviews online about this particular location and no action to resolve it? UPDATE: Package containing jewelry received no updates since it passed through the hands of this post office. They never answer their phone, this looks hopeless! USPS needs to be shut down they have no accountability!

I ordered and item off line over a month ago and started to become frustrated when i noticed that my items had not arrived in a timely matter. It has been over a month at this location.... what is going on? I called this number they gave me and all it will let you do is leave a message. I put in a claim and all they told me was where my package was(which I alaready knew) and that they could not get in touch with anyone at this location. Please answer me this how could the head people not get in touch with the people that work for them?? And they left me with that!! Not we will get to the bottom of this..... NOTHING!!!!Help!!!!! I needed my package like over a month ago!

I have had so many problems with packages missing from here. I emailed the old Postmaster General so many times she blocked me. New Postmaster doesn't even list an email. The new thing the Post Office does once you inquire about a package. They send you an email. Good news your problem is resolved. AND the package is still missing!!! So there just closing cases acting like they fixed them. Voting by USPS will be a joke. We should call Ben Bradley from WGN & investigate. I have a file of missing packages.

This location is notorious for being the worst distribution center in the nation! I wish there were a way to circumvent mail from being handled through there! The sad thing about it is that my comments will never be read by anyone who can do anything about it, so the problems with this facility will continue for the next few decades.

I sent a package to a buyer in the UK at the end of June...The package has been with this location for nearly 2 months now and I'm getting highly annoyed this is my SECOND problem I've had with this location for UK bound packages. I wish etsy didn't force us to use the global sort location but this is not accpetable. I used the USPS 'normal' labels and sent 2 packages to Aus/UK/Canada and those buyers GOT those within 4 weeks! What is the problem with the 'global inter partners'? Please cease your contract with Etsy or pull your heads out from your rear ends and DO.YOUR.JOBS.

Yet another package is stuck at Elk Grove village for over a week now. It says it's departing the facility and the time stamp keeps updating, but it never moves. It seems to be a common theme at this distribution center which means they need some new management at this facility or firing what could be employed thieves stealing packages. In any case the Inspector General will be contacted soon.

Mailed my package PRIORITY MAIL from Loves Park, Illinois on July 06, 2020. Package was addressed to Scottsdale, Arizona. Then, fifteen days later on July 21, 2020 the Post Office tracking system shows that the package is still in Elk Grove, Illinois. For heavens sakes, Elk Grove Village Post Office is only an hour drive from where I mailed the package and it took the POST OFFICE fifteen days to travel 60 miles. Those employees are paid a great deal of money I think they should be doing a better job at moving the mail..

I shipped a flat rate padded envelope from California to Birch Run, Michigan on July 1. It arrived at Elk Grove Village Distribution Center July 6. The last tracking says July 10, which is 6 days ago "Your package moving within USPS Network..." I opened a case on July 15. On July 16 a lady at Birch Run post office called and said the package is not lost but stuck at Elk Grove. There was nothing that could be done except wait. Even with Covid19 this is really not acceptable.

It's July 14 and the package has been in Elk Grove Illinois on four different occasions since June 11 and that's where it is right now. This place is a Bermuda Triangle for packages and I am furious at them. Seriously? A package goes from Elk Grove to Chicago, back to Elk Grove, then to Chicago, back to Elk Grove then to Chicago and now back to Elk Grove again.

Looks like I am having the same issues as many people listed below. Had a package 420610469411201699320003914420 delivered to a different address than originally mailed to since we were going to be away for a couple week. The package has been stuck at Elk Grove Processing for the past week with zero updates on the package. Should have just left the originally mailing instructions instead of attempting to use the technology USPS claims to have. It's no wonder why this organization is hurting like it is.

Well, I see all I'm doing is adding another bad review for Elk Grove P.O. Sent 2 boxes out of Gurnee to head to Peoria, AZ on 6/11/20. I paid $136 to have them there ahead of my grandson's birthday, realizing it may take an extra day due to COVID and reduced work force. His birthday has come and gone, and the only tracking info puts Elk Grove squarely as the sticking point. I asked for a call. Peoria, AZ P.O. called me, and even THEY know Elk Grove is notorious for this. My packages are in limbo and I paid a premium. FedEx is my go-to from now on, and I will be looking for a reduction on my shipping costs from the P.O. - that is, if they ever arrive.

My package 9405509206094179220448 Is a priority package, was last scanned at Elk Grove. My expected date to receive the package was last Friday. It is a cake and cupcakes I had made for my sons birthday, that is pretty much probably going to be trash cuz it’s heading on 8 days with no new scans for days since it got to Elk Grove. I’ve called Elk Grove, my local post office, and nobody can tell me exactly where the package is. The person who sent it said if I get it and it’s bad they will send new ones ASAP, but first I need to revive it and let her know. Next time will be sent through fedex or ups.

I received my stimulus check today, thanks to my neighbor. Another resident of the Village named Emilie (or Emily) Miller got my check, even though MY address was CLEARLY printed under my name on the check that showed through the window envelope. That resident was trying to reach me, even though I wasn't home at the time, and my neighbor saw her and asked if he could help her. I was upset to think that the post office "sorter" didn't bother to read the address under MY name. I was very grateful for the resident's diligence and for my neighbor's help and very aggravated with the post office.

Same thing happened to me. They scan it in then scan it out one minute later so they can say it is in transit and not sitting in a bin while they suck up the tax payer money doing nothing. Or they are stealing the packages and doing it to hide what they are doing. Either way I am contacting my congressman these people are paid by the tax payers and they are stealing right from our pockets. They need to be held accountable.

Our mail is delivered most days, sometimes we go 2 or 3 days with no mail delivery. At least once a week, we get mail that is supposed to go to other addresses, sometimes our next door neighbor, sometimes from a different street. Our neighbors have the same problem - mail delivered to the wrong address. When I call the post office to let them know about this, they say it was a substitute delivering mail that week. But it happens every week!

I have two packages currently sitting at Elk Grove Village post office. It took them 12 days, TWELVE DAYS for the two packages to get from Chicago 30 miles away to the shit hole that is Elk Grove village P.O. now they are back in route to Chicago?!?!?. So over the time period of two freaking weeks, my packages have made it roughly 30 miles or less with no hope they will make it to me in Texas anytime soon!! What is going on at this post office, I have never seen anything like this in my life (besides previous packages that went through the same scenario and took two months to receive)!!!! How can one post office cause such grief for so many people!! Why can’t they get their crap together?! The absolute worst place a package can ever land in this entire universe is at the Elk Grove Village post office!!! I truly cannot comprehend why they have not been shut down yet or had the entire incompetent staff replaced!!

I sent a package on June 6th, PRIORITY MAIL WITH SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION to Urbana Ill. It has been my misfortune that the package wound up at this facility in Elk Grove Village, I don't know how. Trying desperately to find my package, I found this site and I can read all the comments of the desperate people who have been in the same situation as mine. So, it's depressing that Federal employees act with such incompetence and disdain for the public that pays their salaries. Of course, they can do it BECAUSE THEY CAN'T BE FIRED! If they feared for their job, they would do it right.

My friend sent me a package Wednesday around lunch time, paid 23$ for two day shipping and the weight of the package. Friday I was supposed to receive the package and it supposedly departed Chicago Thursday morning well Friday night it updated saying it is back in Chicago !!!!! This process is ridiculous and sad that y’all are so unorganized. Someone made a mistake and needs to be address !! Fed ex and ups will receive all of my business never more USPS !! #garbage

I sent my son his original birth certificate via priority mail with insurance. He has just completed A school in Waukegan and is being shipped overseas. It should have arrived on Friday in Great Lakes, today is Wednesday. Got a notification that it was delayed and arrived in Palatine IL yesterday and then further south to Elk Grove Distribution Center. I am freaking out and my son is too. He needs this to get his clearance. I have been on hold for 15 minutes trying to get a live person on the phone so we can get this in my sons hands. UGH.

Hi, My package I sent certified mail is DELAY since 3/6 it was suppose to be deliver on the 6! No answer, no return calls, waiting for hours to speak to a representative and they have to sent an e-mail to the distribution center and have someone call me back. Yesterday I spoke with someone but she keeps saying she has to e-mail the actual distribution center. She told me yesterday my package was damaged. But nothing on the envelope has been found. Like how is the possible. or how do you know? are you assuming is damage? I had a cashier check that I am unable to stop payment on it for 91 days and I called her back today asking for sometime of proof that is damage. I should at least be getting something "damaged" back but nothing.I am in Phoenix AZ. any help or advice on what to do? Thanks

My package has been sitting in Elk Grove Village for eight days now. Every day I get the same generic email about a "processing exception" with no explanation or estimated due date. This is the worst service I've ever seen, I've always supported the USPS but this makes me change my mind.

Same with me but I found out it's because they shipped my package to Florida instead of Iowa, like how can you get that messed up? So my package is late getting here and they're saying it will be delivered today yet it's still in Florida. Like it shipped from Illinois it should have got here in two days, but instead it has been about a week because of them.

Guess I'm a part of the club! My package has been "at" the Elk Grove location for over 7 business days now. My advice to anyone that notices their tracking not being updated after going to this facility is to call 312-983-8403 and patiently hold until you get a representative. Ask for them to open a claim and get the claim number. Then, when you check again and there still isn't an update (likely the next day or so), call back with your claim number and ask for a Supervisor. The Supervisor I got ahold of was named Angie, and after speaking to her - my "lost" package finally departed the facility the following day. Never using USPS again - what is the point of tracking something, but then not being able to find out where it is? That place is like the Bermuda Triangle.

I have a store online. I never had trouble until items were sent through Elk Grove. I have a very upset customer once again. Everything is ALWAYS in 'transit' with them. I may stop using USPS and close my account. I send out to many items a day for this to be happening. The people in charge need to be replaced. Then you get a delay message, but not with a date or anything to ease your customers mind.

I have given up on the Elk Grove post office and take my mail and packages to the Itasca post office. They are courteous and extremely capable. Too bad they don't deliver mail to Elk Grove Village. My problems would be solved.

I was suppose to received my package on 1/17/2018 it is 1/25/2018 and my package still shows sitting at this ElK Grove center. This is sum straight bullshit. I have called, left messages, and no one has called me about my package. I am beyond P.O with USPS. This service SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How the hell do you order a item from a place in Illinois to be delivered in Illinois and 12 days later you still haven't received. This place needs to shut down and stop taking people orders if they cant deliver on time.

I sell on eBay and I also have a package sent out 12/29 to be delivered 1/3/18 that still is in a crate at Elk Grove Village processing center. I continue to get updates so they are scanning the crate but my package is not moving. My customer is not very happy to say the least and it is a waste of both our times to have to continually track this thing, not knowing if it will ever get to her. Very irritated

I am so pissed off presently and i regret sending my package through USPS. My package was suppose to have been delivered since January 2nd and today it is showing delayed and in-transit when i tracked the package. The package arrived at the ELK GROVE VILLAGE IL DISTRIBUTION CENTER (note this package is suppose to be delivered to a P.O Box in Chicago) since January 1 and my package is still in transit. I called the customer service line, was on hold for almost an hour before a lady picked up and she could not give me an explanation for my package been delayed. She just read out the update on the tracking page and told me to keep checking back until i get an update. nothing could be done. This is so so frustrating and unprofessional. I called because i wanted a detailed explanation and to get a solution not to find myself in a more confused state. the call was an absolute waste of time and energy. so now i am expected to seat out and wait. **totally unprofessional**

I stay in 925 Jefferson Sq and the mail man often leaves the package outside the mail box. Please note that it gets difficult to track the package if the shipper says its delivered and I don't get it. Please ask the mail man to deliver the package to the leasing office in case it does not fit in the mail box.

I have called numerous times in the past hour (12:00 noon) I am at home. It is now 1:05 p.m. I have been listening to loud music for an hour at the least! All I want to know is "can I use a first class one ounce stamp which I purchased a couple of years ago for 47 cents each or do I have to add 2 cents postage?" Is a "forever stamp good forever?" Does extra postage for one ounce 1st class mail have to be added? It is now 1:15 p.m. It is now 1:18 p.m. Someone answered the phone and gave me the answer to my question! I do not have to pay 2 cents more on a Forever Stamp!

I work at a business is EGV and the mail service is terrible. Certified mail, he doesnt even come to the door just put the yellow "sorry we missed you" slip in the box. There are days that my mail doesnt get picked up. I am going one 8 days with no mail and no pick up. AND when you call the post office it just rings and rings and rings or you get the busy signal. This is a business and we depend on the mail to be picked up in a timely manor so that our client can receive their invoices on time.

This post office is the WORST in the whole country, today the pudgy postman ignorantly did not pick up the outgoing mail which was waiting for him at the front desk, and he couldn't have missed it, he placed the incoming mail right beside it. Ignorant lazy overpaid individual.

We are a business in EGV and are at wits end re USPS service! We moved in 1 1/2yrs ago and for first 10 months our daily delivery was hit and miss. We would go for a few days without mail!!! I heard our mail carrier was off on leave and service became regular! I heard she is back on the job and so far we had no delivery on Monday. Elk Grove has the largest industrial park in the world but the worst mail service. How can this be?! Any business considering moving into area BEWARE!

I have never written a review in my life, until now. The Elk Grove Postal service has to be the worst in the US. It takes a week for our employees to receive their paychecks, this is only to Chicago and surrounding areas. I regularly, at least once a week, get other businesses mail and several times they have returned things to me as undeliverable when the address is one I have been mailing to for years. We have had businesses in the surrounding areas mail things to us and have waited over a week to receive them, what is going on in EG.

I work for a medical office in EGV. This week we received medical records for 2 patients that were requested in June and July. We have called the senders office and were told they had mailed them. The postmarks on them are July 11 and August 13. The envelopes had the correct address on them and they returned them to the post office and then sent them to our building management office with a yellow sticker stating it is a new address. This is incorrect. Also we received a PRIORITY MAIL 1-Day that the sender mailed on MAY 13th, we got that one on AUGUST 22. We NEVER see the mail carrier. We are frustrated with the system and how disrespectful this is to us and all the other USPS customers.

I mailed a package to my son in Blacksburg, VA. He supposed to get it on Thursday, did not get a package yet as of Saturday. When I tracked it, it left from Elk Grove, IL facility to deliver. Why did it go to IL first place? It should have gone to Blacksburg, VA. No wonder UPS and FEDEX have a good business.
I never will use USPS TO SEND A PACKAGE AGAIN.

Elk Grove Post office is the worst I have ever had to use. Our mailman can't read and also has a problem with numbers. Today a birthday present that got here on time was returned to sender by our top notch staff in the post office. When I called, the phone was promptly answered in 40 rings and I was told that they cannot track packages. So now I get the pleasure of calling back to speak to a supervisor, while my kids birthday present is sent back across the country. WAY TO GO ELK GROVE POST OFFICE!!!

This post office needs new management....I was waiting for a box to be delivered on the 9th of March.....it never came. The tracking number showed it was undeliverable...??..I live in a House!!
The address was correct and verified by Customer service through the USPS.......it ended up in Pennsylvania! ......so, it was too big to fit in my mail box...the carrier was to lazy to get out of the truck and come to my door....
This is the second time this has happened. This box was a birthday gift for a 2 year old.....totally unacceptable!

Had a very important package that supposedly left that facility 5 days ago coming to me in Tennessee and there has been no tracking activity since. I have never had a package simply disappear before and I am still hoping it shows up, but reading what a nightmare facility this is, I am not too confident. It was insured, but the items can't be replaced. I am going to be so upset if it doesn't arrive.

Unbelievable! This is the 3rd time I've had a package, which was sorted here, delivered to the EAST COAST! The first one was a package of Christmas toys sent to my grandchildren on the WEST COAST, which went to the EAST COAST, but managed to get to the WEST COAST in time for Christmas!! The next package meant to go to Chicago, first went to the EAST COAST, but eventually ended up in Chicago. This last one was to go to the Champaign area, but is now on the EAST COAST! What is going on at Elk Grove?!

I am having issues with a lot of mail and packages saying it's delivered only to find it's not. Mail coming days late. etc. When our regular guy had the route it was better... now that he's out hurt, the replacements are terrible. I had mail deliverd at 7:30 PM this past week. Scared everyone with someone all bundled up hooded walking up the ramp to the house.

My wife mailed a 2-day priority card last Saturday. The envelope is the perfect size to mail cards such as birthday cards and gift cards. She put a $50 gift card in it and mailed it to her sister in Washington. When her sister never received it, we tracked it and found that it never left the Elk Grove Village post office. Someone there probably felt the envelope and could feel the gift card, so they stole it. My wife who has had 3 major strokes and is disabled is crying because she bought that birthday card and was saving it for 2 years to give to her sister for her birthday this year. People in the Elk Grove Village post office are not honest.
