Arrived at Post Office

What does USPS Arrived at Post Office mean? The package has arrived at your Post Office and is being prepared for delivery. Official wording says it should arrive today or the next postal business day. Wait through that window; if there is still no tracking change and no delivery after 1 full postal business day following the arrival date, the official page says to submit a service request.

What to do

Wait for delivery today or the next postal business day, as the official What It Means describes. The carrier is preparing the package for delivery. If there has been no change in tracking status after 1 full postal business day has passed following the arrival date at your local Post Office™ AND no delivery has occurred, use your tracking number and submit a service request to your local Post Office™. The recipient acts only after that window, and only if there has been no delivery.
