Informed Delivery by USPS

By

Informed Delivery is a free USPS service that provides mail preview images and package status updates. Notifications arrive via daily email or are accessible on the dashboard from your phone, computer, or mobile app.

The service offers features designed to make it easier to track and receive packages.

Start your mornings with a preview of your day's USPS mail and packages with Informed Delivery notifications:

  • Get Daily Digest emails that preview your mail and packages scheduled to arrive soon.
  • See images of your incoming letter-sized mail (grayscale, address side only).
  • Track and manage your packages in one convenient place.

I enjoy using the service. I also appreciate the USPS website, where I can place a hold on my mail if I'm going on vacation, reschedule a delivery, or track a package. If you frequently ship packages, it’s an excellent alternative to other third-party services.

Good morning, Kelly. I've had informed delivery for years. For some reason people don't seem to be aware of this service... so good for you for getting the word out.

I have too!  I'm surprised by how many people are not signed up!  Some people had no idea it was a 'thing'.

Hi Kelly,
Like Nina, I've had this service for years. It's great. When I go away during the winter, my neighbor watches my house and picks up my mail. I can tell them if I need anything forwarded to me.

It is nice to have a 'heads up' on certain documents.

I know some people who work for the post office right now. They are having a tough time staying afloat. Will they get privatized? hmmm

Time will tell!  Hard to believe that 'one day' there will be no more post offices.

Good morning Kelly,

It is good to get the word out as many are not informed of this service.

I enjoy informed delivery, although it isn't always the most reliable thing, haha.  I enjoy being able to see what should be coming in the mail.

My People magazine somehow takes a couple of days to show up. I swear the postman breezes through it first, then delivers it.
