Tracking status

“Transferred to Post Office for Delivery”: what this tracking status means

A carrier has handed the package to another delivery provider, such as the local post office, for the final leg. UPS says the sender requested this and recommends allowing an extra day or two. DHL says the third party takes over the last mile and may issue a new tracking number.

What to do

  1. Allow an extra day or two (UPS guidance).
  2. Track the package on the local postal service's site, using a new tracking number if one is provided.
  3. Check your regular mailbox and post office notices.

How long it usually takes

UPS: allow an extra day or two for final delivery.

When to contact the sender or carrier

If the local carrier has no record after a few days, contact the original carrier or sender.
