I have a mail question.

Hi there I was wondering if somebody could answer a question about mail. I get all my packages shipped from ebay to my parents house. They are retired and always home. Anyway, now they are out of town and they put a stop on their mail. So I checked a tracking number on a package and it stated that an attempt was made to deliver your package and a tag was left. I could either go pick it up or they would attempt another delivery, but if it went unclaimed they would send it back to the sender. I went by my parents house to get the tag so I could get the package, but there was no tag and since I don't live at my parents house anymore I can't go into the post office to get their mail. I am wondering why would it say an attempt was made to deliver this because they stopped their mail? Also how long does it take for the post office to return to sender? My parents get back next Sunday.

hmmm not sure if this will help but how about just going to they're PO? Can you do that?

Even w/o the tag you may be able to explain it to the counter guy and get it.

Or if you can stop by and see the actual delivery guy.

I would take the tracking number to the PO with your id and you should be able to pickup the package.

Just a thought.

The peach colored slip could be with the mail that is being held.

Like the others have said, you could try to pick up the package as long as YOUR name is on it and bring photo ID like a drivers license.
