How do i report a missing mail

If you're missing mail, there are a few steps you can take to report it and try to recover your lost or stolen mail:

  1. Contact your local post office: Reach out to your local post office or the post office where you normally receive your mail. They can help you file a report and investigate the issue.
  2. Fill out a report: You can fill out a report at the post office or online through the USPS website. You'll need to provide some basic information, such as:
    • Your name and address
    • The date you expected to receive the mail
    • A description of the missing mail (e.g., package, letter, package tracking number)
  3. Provide any relevant information: Be prepared to provide any additional information that might help the post office investigate, such as:
    • A list of the items that were missing
    • Any tracking numbers or confirmation numbers
    • Any suspicious activity or unusual circumstances surrounding the disappearance of the mail
  4. Check with your neighbors: If you live in an apartment or condominium, check with your neighbors to see if they've received any mail that might belong to you.
  5. Contact the sender: If you're missing a package or letter, try contacting the sender to see if they've received any updates or have any information about the missing mail.
  6. Check online tracking: If you have tracking information for the missing mail, check the USPS website or the carrier's website to see if there are any updates on the status of the package.
  7. Wait for the investigation: The post office will investigate the missing mail and try to recover it. This may take some time, so be patient and keep an eye on your mail for any updates.
