Tracking Support

Generally, our drivers can deliver as late as 9 p.m. During the holiday season, our drivers may deliver even later.

If we are unable to deliver a package that shows a status of "out for delivery," we’ll try another delivery on the next business day.

Tracking your package on UPS.com will give you the most up-to-date information about the status of your shipment. Check back periodically for shipment progress updates.

Track a Package

UPS Ground packages are generally delivered anytime Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. (and sometimes later) to residences, and to business addresses during their normal business hours.

While ground packages can’t be scheduled to arrive at a specific time, UPS express shipments have guaranteed delivery times that vary by service.

Your driver will try to leave your package out of plain sight to protect it. Check exterior doors or other places your package could’ve been placed, like the porch, back patio or garage. Also check with anyone who may have picked up your package, like a neighbor. If you still can’t find it, contact the seller to start a claim.
