UPS holiday shipping deadlines for 2023

To make sure your thoughtful, hand-packed gift isn't sent in vain and actually arrives by Christmas and Kwanza (it's a bit too late for Hanukkah, we're afraid), here are the UPS-specific shipping deadlines to stay aware of:

• Ship by Dec. 19 (with "3 Day Select" shipping)

• Ship by Dec. 20 (with "2nd Day Air" shipping)

• Ship by Dec. 21 (with "Next Day Air" shipping)

If you're interested in ground shipping, you can calculate how fast the package will get to its destination on the UPS site (by plugging in zip code and shipping date). The company says that 90% of all UPS ground packages are delivered in three days or less, so use this info wisely.
