Shipping from the UK to the USA takes anywhere from 1 business day for express couriers like DHL to 1-3 weeks (or more) for standard/economy mail, depending heavily on the speed chosen, carrier (Royal Mail, USPS, FedEx, UPS), and customs clearance, with air freight being faster than sea freight. Express services offer 1-4 days, standard services 5-10 days, while economy/sea freight can take weeks.
