UPS® is among the globe's largest and most trusted shipping services, and through UPS tracking, e-commerce merchants and their clients can track deliveries using multiple ways.

Ways to Track My UPS Package?

UPS provides several options to follow local or overseas shipments. First, you need to obtain a UPS tracking number, which is usually delivered via email after making an e-commerce purchase or given to you when sending a package from a retail store.

UPS assigns an 18-digit tracking number that starts with 1Z, followed by a 6-character shipper number (combination of numbers and letters), 2 service level indicator characters, and then 8 digits to track the specific package.

Example:

IZ1234567891234567

When you have the tracking number, you can check the shipping status through several methods.

How Long Does It Take for UPS Tracking to Refresh?

UPS updates tracking information throughout the shipping process by reading barcodes at each new facility. Tracking information should refresh nearly in real-time. Sometimes, drivers may postpone scanning barcodes for various reasons, resulting in delayed tracking information.

What Happens When UPS Tracking Isn't Updating?

Customers are generally advised to wait up to 24 hours for carriers to register their shipment's UPS tracking number. If your shipment's UPS tracking number isn't updating, it could mean the courier hasn't collected the package yet, or the package has been collected but hasn't been scanned. If it still hasn't updated after 24 hours, it's recommended to contact Easyship support directly to resolve any issues.

UPS Tracking FAQ

Where is my UPS tracking number on my receipt?

You can see your shipment tracking number at the bottom of your receipt. The number is located under the "Package Information" header.

How many digits are in a UPS tracking number?

A UPS tracking number contains 18 digits. It typically starts with "1Z" and ends with a check digit.

Why isn't my UPS tracking number working?

All UPS tracking numbers are invalid if the courier hasn't collected the package yet. Another reason for an incorrect tracking number could be that the package's barcode hasn't been scanned.

What does "Out for Delivery Today" mean?

If your UPS tracking package shows it's out for delivery today, this basically means your package has been handed to a UPS driver and will be delivered that day.

How much does UPS tracking cost?

UPS doesn't charge separately for tracking. For services that offer tracking, the cost is included in the total shipping fee.
