This is why your packages are still "in transit," and why it won't be helpful to call with your tracking number. USPS package volumes are up 30-40%. Staffing is short due to COVID cases and quarantines. The mail is simply backed up. Remember to thank your carriers! #USPSdelays 
Adding to this: letters and flats that can pass through the automatic sorting machines are being processed at much faster rates than large packages, which is why you’re still getting cards and catalogs but not your packages.
Some of those mail sorting machines were disassembled and removed from distribution centers this summer thanks to Postmaster DeJoy. DeJoy also changed the “every piece of mail, every day” operating policy of the USPS.
