Learn How To Reach USPS Customer Service Effortlessly

The United States Postal Service (also known as USPS, the Post Office, or Postal Service) is a government agency responsible for providing postal service nationwide.

USPS delivers mail and packages to over 150 million addresses across the country. Despite its popularity, it’s not uncommon for customers to have trouble receiving their mail, or even worse—packages sent via USPS can end up being lost for months.

So, what to do if USPS says delivered, but there is no package in sight? In such scenarios, contacting USPS customer service is essential. Luckily, we make sure you don’t have to waste hours trying to reach them! Sign up for DoNotPay, and let us call USPS customer service for you! We’ll wait until the company’s support agent answers the call and notify you as soon as they do.

Wondering how long you will have to wait until a support agent answers your call? It depends on the circumstances, such as the time of day when you’re calling. For example, if you call in the evening, you'll likely have to wait longer since that's when their lines are busiest. Some customers reported waiting on hold for up to two hours.

2. Click on Email Us
3. Enter your order’s tracking number or select the reason for your inquiry

3. Hit Search

After you complete the above-listed instructions, you’ll see a list of the nearest post offices, along with working hours and parking availability.
