A tracking number allows you to follow the delivery of a package as it's being shipped. If you're in a situation where you don't have a tracking number, many of the major package delivery companies now have free tools that allow you to track your package online without one. To use these tools, you have to visit the company's website and register for an account. Once you make your account, it's just a matter of logging in and finding the correct package based on other shipping details.

Once you are on the registration page, fill in your personal details and verify your address.
