The receiver has moved. We're attempting to obtain a new delivery address for this receiver

UPS tracking parcel

What this status means

UPS has tried to deliver the parcel, or has found while handling it, that the recipient no longer seems to live at the address on the label. The parcel is still with UPS. UPS is now trying to find a new address for the recipient. It is not lost, and it has not been returned yet.

Is my package delayed?

This is an exception, not a normal step. The parcel cannot move forward normally until the address question is settled, so a delay is likely. The same message often repeats, which means UPS has not yet found a usable address.

What happens next

  • Most often, the same message appears again while UPS keeps trying.
  • If UPS finds a new address, the parcel goes back into transit, sometimes through another UPS facility, and the tracking shows that it will be delivered to the new address.
  • If UPS cannot get a correct address, the parcel is returned to the sender.
  • UPS may also ask for the address to be corrected using a "Correct My Address" link.

What you can do

  • Check the delivery address on your order. If it is wrong or outdated, tell the seller right away.
  • If you have moved, or the address is right, contact UPS with your tracking number and give the correct address.
  • If the status does not change for longer than usual, or the parcel starts returning to the sender, contact the seller with your order details.
  • Keep checking the tracking history for updates.
