Tracking numbers allow you to locate packages all over the world.
The United States Postal Service (USPS) is your method of sending mail anywhere in the world. While most mail sent through USPS does not come with a tracking number, you can obtain a tracking number by mailing a package with delivery confirmation, signature confirmation, via express mail or priority mail. With this tracking number you can keep tabs on your package's progress anywhere in the world, including overseas.
Instructions
1. Go to the USPS website to track your package. Click on the link titled,"Track and Confirm." You need to have the tracking number of your package on hand to enter on the next page.
2. Enter your tracking number, which is located on the shipping receipt of your package; USPS tracking numbers contain both letters and numbers. Click "Track" once you have double checked to ensure your tracking number is entered correctly.
3. View the results of your shipment. The USPS website can tell you when you shipped your package, where the package was taken next, where it is currently located and when it is due to arrive at its intended destination. It takes the USPS up to 24 hours to update tracking information on their website.
