Hey UPS, Where Is My Package? Get the Info

Getting a package can be thrilling. Will the newly purchased item of clothing fit you? Can you wear it at that soon-coming event?

The experience can be tainted if the delivery is late or the parcel is missing. If you are asking, "UPS, where is my package?", this article can help you handle the problem speedily and efficiently.

Where Is My Package, UPS? Has It Been Lost or Stolen?

Depending on whether your UPS package has been shipped within the USA or from an international destination, here is what you can expect in case your parcel is missing:

  • The U.S. shipping—you need to wait for 24 hours before filing a lost package claim
  • International shipping—you can expect to go through a more complex procedure if you have ordered goods from abroad. The best option is to contact the seller to start the claim as UPS can provide the refund to the seller and not you directly

While UPS will start investigating when you file a missing package claim, you should be aware that it is not easy to determine whether your package has been stolen or lost.
