Tracking in in Durham
You can keep track of your item until it arrives at its destination using the post office website tool.
When sending an item with the Royal Post Office, always ensure you keep your receipt with reference number, this way you can localize your package at all times.
Where do you find this number?
The reference number contains between 9 and 27 numbers and it will allow you to localize your items along the way into its destination. In case you have lost your ticket, you won't be allowed to track your package online.
