Okay so i admit i fucked up, i gave the source my address but forget to put my apartment number so they attempted delivery to the wrong place and they luckily refused. it shows up in tracking as back at the post office, should i go in tomorrow and try and pick it up or take the loss and move on?
Yes, just go pick it up. They’ll ask for ID to prove your name and/or address to match package recipient.
you should just go get it so its not sitting there too long...
No issues if you just go pick it up. I would try to get to it early though. You dont want it going back to the return address.
Just go pick it up. It's not a big deal
If you have a local package then it should be A-OK unless you are already HOT for some other reason, they are not just opening packs with wrong addy they return to sender after 15 days... Matter of fact I think when they can't deliver something and they hold it long enough they end up eventually just destroying the packs unopened.
bro packages are destroyed after 30 days of being unrecovered..but thats only after another 30 days redemption period it seems...so 59 days and its gone...

Go and pick it up bro, you'll be fine but go for it
You can pick it up without issues. They may require yo to sign a document. Nothing to be worry about, though.
So I wanted to know what really happens to mail lost in 2020. So l when package or letter(payment) can't be delivered to the recipient and when the return addy maybe just can't be delivered to for some reason.
I searched the question far and wide the question since I wanted to see if policy has changed since the last time I checked. I found a lady on a mainstream blog discussing the USPS, she claims to be a retired employee of the post. She explains that basically pieces of undeliverable mail and non-returnable to the sender, gets routed to a department in the post is called Mail Recovery Center (MRC) that handles all of the lost mail. So every pack and letter ends up there at the MRC get processed where the paper mail is destroyed and packs or items that have some obvious value are then opened up inspected thoroughly for an address or a phone number or some sort of way to deliver it. If no way to locate the owner or an address to deliver it to then the valuable is stored for a while waiting for someone to file a claim so the proper owner can be found. If nobody speaks up about the item then they auction it online $ ! ! ! !
