Now, let’s discuss the another method for tracking the package which is through Email. This is one of the most convenient way of tracking the package for the users as nowadays every one operates their email ids and they are always available there so, they can easily track their packages through this method. Now, let’s have a look at the same which is given below in detail.
Tracking UPS Order Through Email
This method of tracking is better than many other methods as through this method, the users can save a lot of their time which they cannot save in the other two methods that we have discussed so far. The United Parcel service provides the facility through which the users can track their shipment by email. To avail this service, the user needs to have an email id through which they can mail their tracking number at the email address that is given here (totaltrack@ups.com). If the user needs to track more than one shipment then, they can send more than one tracking number but it also has its limitations, the user need to make sure that they cannot send more than 25 tracking numbers.
However, if the user is tracking the single package then, they need to put the subject line of the tracking number and they need to mention the statement in the body of the email. If the users have multiple tracking numbers then, they can put all the numbers tracking numbers in the body of their message and they can also leave the subject of their mail as in this case, it is not necessary to write anything in the subject of the blank.
Therefore, in both of the cases, the tracking response will be sent back to the users in their emails but this method of tracking is not available for the freight tracking of the UPS packages. Whereas, the users will get only the full information of their other tracking details apart of the freight tracking. This is, therefore, one of the best methods for those users who are very busy with their other works and they do not have enough time for tracking through the other methods.
Now, after discussing this, let’s come to the another method of tracking the United Parcel services is Import Tracking Numbers. Through this method, the users must have to make their registrations in the official website of the United Parcel Services. Let’s discuss this method in brief. Have a look at the following discussion regarding the same.

This Import Tracking Numbers is another easiest way of getting the tracking information of the package.

Now, let’s have a look at how to use this service and have a look at how to avail this SMS service next time while delivering the package through the UPS delivery services. Now, have a look at the steps for tracking through the SMS through which the users can track their packages very easily.
Step 1: First of all, the user needs to go to the official website of the UPS and after that they need to enter the tracking number which is given on the option that is on the left side of the users screen and they need to select the track option.
Step 2: Then, the user will be redirected to the next page that is called as “Tracking Details”.
Step 3: After doing this much, the users need to select the option which says “Notify Me With Updates” in order to get the notification through the SMS.

However, the users need to make sure that they have to make only one time confirmation through their number and it will not ask the users, again and again, to enter their number until the user want to opt this service.
