What Information is Required for UPS to Change a Delivery Address?

When it comes to package delivery, we all know how important it is to receive our shipments on time. However, there are situations where we may need to change the delivery address. Perhaps we moved to a new location, or we won’t be available at our original address during the delivery date. Whatever the reason, UPS understands that sometimes, a delivery address change is necessary. But what information do you need to provide to make that happen?

First, it’s important to note that changing a delivery address is not always possible. It depends on the status of the package, the destination, and the delivery requirements. That being said, if the package is eligible for address correction or a change in destination, here is the information you need to provide:

1. Tracking number or InfoNotice number
The tracking number or InfoNotice number is essential to locate the package within the UPS system. Without it, UPS won’t be able to confirm the delivery status, let alone change its destination. You can find the tracking number or InfoNotice number on your shipment confirmation email, receipt, or delivery notice.

2. Current delivery address
To change the delivery address, UPS needs to know the package’s original delivery address. Make sure to provide the full address, including the street name, number, apartment or suite number, city, state, and zip code.

3. New delivery address
Next, provide the complete address where you want the package delivered. This includes the same information as the previous address: street name, number, apartment or suite number, city, state, and zip code. It’s crucial to ensure the new address is correct, or else the package may end up in the wrong location.

4. Contact information
Lastly, UPS may need to contact you to confirm the address change or provide updates on the package’s status. Provide your email address and phone number, along with any additional instructions or requests you may have.

It’s worth noting that UPS may charge a fee for changing the delivery address, depending on the package’s destination and the type of delivery service requested. Additionally, some packages, such as those with specific delivery requirements or international packages, may not be eligible for address correction or a change in destination.

In summary, changing a delivery address with UPS requires specific information, including the tracking number, the original and new delivery addresses, and the contact information. While it may not always be possible, providing accurate and complete information can help ensure your package arrives at the right location and on time.
