US Postal service First Class rate, three to five days typically. Many sites show 2-7 days. Depends a bit on the post office on each end and how far they are from a regional processing center.

How long does it take for regular mail to send from Texas to Illinois on an average schedule?
The United States Postal Service (USPS) offers a map for Priority Mail delivery service: "Priority Mail Delivery Map" Let's take Austin, Texas, noted on the map in the darker blue, as our origin.You can see that in the vicinity of Austin, you can count on one-day delivery for priority mail. To most urban and otherwise populated areas around the country, it's two days. To rural areas around the country, it's three days.From Austin to Chicago or the St. Louis area, it could be two days. For a more rural part of Illinois, it could be three.Just click the link above to enter your origin address.Now, this is all for "Priority Mail."Regular first-class mail looks like this: "United States Postal Service: Service Standards Map"To basically anywhere in Illinois from Texas, you're looking at three days.Which then brings up the interesting point of whether it's worth it to pay more for Priority Mail. It should also be noted that these maps aren't guarantees, and they aren't from an omniscient crystal ball. They're estimates. But three days is probably a pretty strong median delivery duration.
Will priority mail 2 day from south carolina be flown to cleveland?
It is not possible to be delivered next day. The flight may be short, but it will be through at least five or six postal facilities on its trip and will wait at the airport for a flight going that way. Processing takes place only during certain times of the day at postal distribution centers because they can sort a whole days volume in a few hours. Different projects are worked on at different times of the day.
How long does it take to receive mail from Illinois to Ohio?
Others have answered with the typical or published delivery times. However, in practice I’ve seen much, much longer delivery times than published on a somewhat regular basis. For example, in just the last couple of months I’ve had 2–3 day priority mail take 11 days, 1–2 day express mail take 7 days. My small number of shipments is probably no indication, but we have had many more late packages than in the past.This makes it difficult to deal with customers who complain that they paid for 2 day shipping and want to know what we are going to do about it. In reality we can do nothing. USPS simply doesn’t guarantee delivery times (though they will refund shipping on late express mail). We try to make that clear to the customers, and now recommend UPS if they need their package on time, but still.. 11 days for priority mail? Pony express would do coast to coast delivery in 10.And don't’ get me started on the massive delays that occurred when they shut down many of their distribution centers several years ago. Bulk mail (Ohio to Ohio) was 2 months in some cases, First class we saw as much as 30 days. Fortunately that occurred after our peak season.
How long does it take First-Class Mail to arrive?
I can’t really add anything to the actual process of mailing a letter that the other excellent answers haven’t already covered. But, I will give you a couple of hacks to get your mail to the location faster.This only works if you live near a very large processing facility.I lived in Oviedo, FL but the nearest large processing facility is in Orlando, FL by the airport. If you mail it AT THAT FACILITY, they will sort it and send it out the same day if you meet the cut-off times on the mail box. This will save you the time it would take locally to sort and process it and save 1–2 days in the process.I now live in Nothern Viriginia near Washington DC. There are 2 large facilities near me. Merrifield, VA and Dulles, VA (think airport as in IAD).If I mailed anything at Merrifield, it takes 2–3 days to get to any destination on the East Coast that I have sent things to. If I mail it at the Dulles facility, it cuts that down by 1 day. If I go local, it goes through 2–3 transfers which can add an extra day or two to the process.But, for less than fifty cents, who else is going to take your first class letter ANYWHERE?
Does the USPS deliver mail on weekends, and if so, is this nationally or dependent on ones location?
Yes. USPS delivers mail on Saturday. No regular mail delivery on Sunday though. Express Mail is delivered as it comes in regardless of what day it is. So, in short, Express Mail is delivered on Sunday. It was my experience that Saturdays tended to be “light” mail days. So many people wanted off early. They’d skip lunch and break to get off a couple of hours early. Not recommended but it happened. I strived for consistency. But in short, Saturday was usually light and mail was usually delivered earlier.
How long does a package take to ship from New York to Florida?
The U.S. Postal Service estimates 3-5 working days (which is the cheapest way, unless it is more than 13 oz). If it's more than 13 oz you can make the standard mail for 1-2 weeks. However, if you need something delivered faster (and a little more expensive) there is a priority mail that is an estimate of 2-3 working days or Priority Mail Express which is 1 working day guaranteed.
