From time to time this happens... Please check your mailbox, front door, any side doors, and neighbours to see if the package was placed there first. If you cannot locate your package, we suggest waiting 3 business days as more often than not, it will eventually show up. If you have waited those 3 business days and your package still has not arrived, we suggest calling your local post office and providing them with your tracking number so they can help you locate your package. In addition, you can file a missing package claim online. We HIGHLY suggest calling first as the online form rarely results in anything, from our experience. 

The USPS asks you to wait 15 days before filing a claim for a missing package. You can file the claim here: https://www.usps.com/help/missing-mail.htm 

It is the customer's responsibility to contact the USPS or other shipping couriers to locate their package. If the USPS cannot locate your package, please provide a written statement as such after 15 business days so we can replace your order. Note, this does not apply to orders that are still in transit - This only applies to orders that have been marked delivered and confirmed lost by the USPS.
