The sender typically determines whether a signature is required for packages. In some instances UPS drivers may require a signature for deliveries on their route. You can authorise UPS to leave packages without signing by enrolling in UPS My Choice^®.

Your package can be held at a UPS Customer Center or a UPS Access Point location. You can also instruct us to reroute your package to another address or have the driver leave it with a neighbor.
