UPS offers UPS My Choice. It's a free service that allows you to track your packages. You can also use it to put holds on deliveries at the local facility or have delivered to a UPS store. They do have a premium service that you can pay for on a monthly basis, but for my the free version works fine.
After Hurricane Irma, UPS had a backlog since the local facility was closed the week after Irma hit. Since it would have delayed a package I really needed, I just went on the web site and had them hold it at the local facility.
With UPS My Choice, you can store multiple addresses, so I have our home address and our summer address stored and I can easily toggle between the two. The app will give you notifications of pending deliveries as well as confirmation of delivery, but only for the primary address. Notifications are emailed as well, again only for the primary address.
It's a great free tool and being able to have packages held or delivered to the local UPS Store at no extra charge is a great feature. Our Seasonal Park does not allow packages to be delivered, although if one slips through, they will deliver it to our site.
