I use USPS Priority mail to track letter sized things. They have other options for packages. If you can get into a post office, that might be an easier conversation to have in person with someone there about what you need. There are also still some storefronts for FedEx Kinko's or UPS Store and it might be easier to go in to see someone in one of those about options. Lastly there are still independent courier services, but that might be more than what you need. *Erica Findley (she/her)* *Systems & Metadata Librarian* *x80591* Multnomah County Library Pettygrove: Tue all day & Fri: 1 pm - 5 pm Teleworking: Mon, Wed & Thu: 8 am - 5 pm, Fri: 7:00 am - 11:00 am The Gallery <https://gallery.multcolib.org/> My pronouns are she/her/hers On Wed, Apr 12, 2023 at 2:20 PM charles meyer <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > External Sender - Be Suspicious of Attachments, Links, and Requests for > Payment or Login Information. > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > My esteemed listmates, > > I mailed by US Post Office by certified mail a check to a financial org in > Texas. > > That was done last Thursday. > > The org can't accept credit cards nor wire transfers. > > A local attorney advised it was better to send certified mail than having > anyone sign for it or return receipt requested. > > The tracking number on the certified mail does not appear in the tracking > system on the US Post Office tracking Web site. > > Phoned the local Venice PO to ask if they can track certified mail day by > day like Fed Express.
