Best Answer

When one chooses to ship with USPS, a tracking number will be provided for the shipment. The shipper can then track the package as it makes its way to its destination using the online USPS tracking tool and the number provided to track the package. One can even view a signature if one was given, and confirm that a package was delivered very quickly after it reaches its destination.
