Does usps media mail come with tracking

USPS Media Mail does come with tracking, but it's not the same level of tracking as Priority Mail or other services.

Media Mail is a cost-effective way to send books, CDs, DVDs, and other media items, but it's not a trackable service in the classical sense. However, USPS does provide some level of tracking for Media Mail packages.

Here's what you can expect:

  1. Delivery Confirmation: Media Mail packages are scanned at the time of mailing and again when they're delivered. This provides a basic level of tracking, allowing you to confirm that your package was sent and received.
  2. Tracking Number: You'll receive a tracking number for your Media Mail package, which you can use to track its progress online. However, this tracking number only updates at the time of mailing and delivery, not at each stop along the way.
  3. Limited Tracking Information: USPS may provide limited tracking information, such as the date and time of mailing, the date and time of delivery, and the delivery status (e.g., "delivered" or "attempted delivery").

Keep in mind that Media Mail is a non-trackable service, which means that USPS is not responsible for lost or missing packages. If your package is lost or damaged, you may need to file a claim with USPS to resolve the issue.

If you need more advanced tracking features, such as real-time updates or signature confirmation, you may want to consider using a different USPS service, like Priority Mail or First Class Package Service.
