What to do
- Remove anything blocking access (vehicles, pets, locked gates).
- Provide gate or building access instructions where the carrier allows.
- Sign up for tracking updates to see the reattempt.
How long it usually takes
USPS and Royal Mail: reattempt the next business day where possible.
When to contact the sender or carrier
USPS says if more than 24 hours have passed since the 'No Access' status, submit a service request to your local Post Office.
