1. Contact your local post carrier and try to speak to your postal person directly, as sometimes they have a recollection of when and where they leave packages.
2. Make sure your mail area is secure, and leave a note to request that packages not be left unattended.
3. Is there a chance one of your neighbors mistakenly collected your package?
If you have completed all of the above, please visit UPS to file a claim and provide our team with this claim number.
