Waiting for a USPS package? It’s exciting—but also stressful if you don’t know where it is. Thankfully, USPS tracking makes it easy to stay updated. Whether it’s a letter, parcel, or large shipment, you can quickly track your USPS package, check the USPS package status, or use tools like USPS Informed Delivery to get real-time updates. Here’s how to stay in control of every delivery.

✅ 1. Use Your USPS Tracking Number

Every mailable item that includes tracking services comes with a unique USPS Tracking Number. You can find it in:
