Usps Says Delivered But No Package (What To Do + More)
Why is USPS saying Delivered, but no Package?
The USPS may have misplaced a package marked “Delivered” and it could also be due to an error in scanning, a mistake by the postal carrier or the accidental delivery of the package to a neighbour. If neither one of these causes your missing parcel, you can call your local postoffice to get it back.
Why are my packages not delivered when they say that the package is here
Expect to receive your package by the following day. Please be patient.
It is possible that your package was not delivered to the address you have requested.
In order to confirm, check around your mailbox, in the bushes, under stairs or anywhere a package might be left.
You might also want to check with neighbors whether they have received mail bearing your name. If a postal carrier doesn’t know the route they are using, they could mix up building or apartment numbers.
What do I do if my parcel is not delivered but I don’t see it?
GPS is used by the USPS to transport packages. This could cause packages to be labeled “Delivered” before they arrive.
In most cases, all you need to do is wait another business day for your package to arrive.
If you haven’t received your package in more than one day and still haven’t checked your neighbor’s property or asked them about it, you should contact the local USPS Post Office.
It is a good idea to reach out to the chief postmaster, or manager on duty. This will allow them to make contact with the mail carrier along your route in order to learn more.
USPS can help if the package does not arrive within 7 days. The claim can be filed at your nearest postal office or online.
A Missing Mail claim triggers postal workers to start a detailed search of every step your package went through between drop-off and supposed delivery.
Missing mail cases are packages that have been scanned, but not placed on a vehicle or forgotten.
So, you should start a Missing Mail inquiry to fix these issues and get your package delivered where it is needed.
Are Packages Delivered by USPS Before Delivery?
Most cases, USPS does not mark packages as delivered until they are delivered.
A package that is not scanned into USPS will cause an error. Employees who scan packages using the “Delivered” setting, rather than “Accepted,” setting can make a package appear as delivered, even if the package was simply placed in the mail.
A scan error is another type that occurs when the mail carrier scans an item as “Delivered” and places it at a different location than its designated delivery address (e.g. A house, apartment, or business can be scanned as “Delivered” by a mail carrier.
Unable to deliver a parcel, but scanned by a carrier at the destination of delivery, the courier will report the package status as either “Delivered” (or “Delivery attempted”) even if the action is not taken.
Scans are often more frequent than we think.
For example, one USPS audit revealed that 191 out of 1,100 packages had been scanned as delivered but were still in the delivery unit waiting to be dropped off.
