For USPS, the tracking number is located in the bottom box underneath the barcode.
For FedEx, the tracking number is located in the bottom box above the barcode.
For UPS, the tracking number is located in the third box, almost the center of the label. This tracking number is also above the barcode.

Why is my FirstMile package not moving?
The most common reason for your FirstMile package to not be moving is because it is in transit from one destination to the next and has not been scanned yet.
Once the package arrives at the new destination, it will then be scanned, and the tracking information will be updated accordingly.
The best example of this is when the package arrives at the courier’s warehouse but must then travel to another warehouse before being placed on the truck for final delivery.
Why is my FirstMile package pending?
A pending package means that information has come in that has hanged the estimated arrival time of the package. This can happen in cases of inclement weather, where the package may be stuck at a warehouse until the weather is clear.
A pending status can also happen if the courier has received information that would change the final destination of the package.
