Walmart is home to thousands of useful products that can be ordered both in-store and online. But, the hardest thing is when your order is in its “processing” phase.
Why does it take so long for me to get my Walmart orders processed?
Walmart orders stuck in the “processing” stages are due to stock discrepancies and shipments that Walmart is yet to receive. Walmart orders are more difficult than normal to process due to the inability of Walmart fulfillment centers to ship the order without stock arriving.
Why does my Walmart order say processing even though it is not yet processed?
Most likely, it’s a backorder’. These orders are placed for products and items that are not in stock.
Walmart will often wait for new stock of the product ordered to arrive before sending the item. This is rather than cancelling the order.
What is the average time it takes for Walmart to process an order?
Once an order has been shipped to Walmart or to the fulfillment center, it can take Walmart between 2 and 4 hours to process. After processing, your order will proceed to “shipping”.
A delay of up to two or three days could occur if the item does not become available in the Walmart stores.
Additionally, some Walmart customers have had to wait 2 – 10 days for the “processing” stage to roll over to the “shipping” stage.
But this is rare, so a Walmart representative will normally reach out to you if there’s a long delay.
What can I do to fix this?
Unfortunately, there is nothing customers can do to speed up the “processing” stage of the order as Walmart will be waiting on suppliers.
There are two options: cancel your order to receive a refund, or you can purchase the product from another source.
If you do not wish to cancel your order you may call Walmart Customer Service (1 800 925-6278), and ask for a credit or discount due to the inconvenience.
Some customers receive 20 percent off total orders by calling.

To learn more, you can see our other guides on where Walmart ships from and if Walmart US delivers to Canada and other countries.
Also, it might be a good idea to find out what happens to your order if you do not pick it up or how to cancel it.
Walmart may delay processing your order for a number of reasons. This is often due to stock shortages or backorders. Walmart can either hold your order until they have more or cancel it if you wait too long.
You can track your order online using your Walmart account, or you can ring or email stores for more specific advice tailored to your order.
Walmart How long does it take to ship an order?
You can get delivery within two days if you order before 2 p.m. If you place your order after 2 pm on Friday, it will not be delivered until Wednesday. If you place your order on Tuesday prior to 2 p.m. you will receive it the next Friday.
Why Is Walmart Shipping So Slow?
Walmart is the most well-known US store. Their delivery can sometimes be slow due to third-party providers.
What’s the deal?
You can request replacements or refunds through your account or by contacting Customer Care if items or parts become lost. For a full refund, or replacement of the item received, please contact Customer Care.
What does this mean when Walmart order is processing?
An order status of “Processing” means your order has been entered into our system and has been sent to the manufacturer or multiple manufacturers, depending on your order. Until we get shipment tracking information from the manufacturer, our order status will be “Processing”.
