When the USPS "Track & Confirm" website for your package says:

Status: Arrival at Unit

Your item arrived at 5:33 AM on January 23, 2007 in PHILADELPHIA, PA 191XX. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later.

[Poll #913110]

...just cause I love saying/writing "Schuylkill"

I would assume that means its destination... but maybe I'm just crazy.

Serious answer: that means it's at an intermediate stop (likely whatever post office is in 191XX). If it were delivered, it would say something like "Your item was successfully delivered to it's destination on" blah blah blah.

But really, since it usually takes them days to update their site anyway, by the time you see that message, it probably has been delivered.

I've found that the USPS tracking has been notoriously useless. I have had many times where it has said "delivered" and then shows up a week later.

This is like that package of mine that once got sent from South Carolina to Ohio to Pittsburgh to Kentucky to Tennessee to Wisconsin to Pittsburgh, where it then sat for two days before being delivered.
