Well USPS usually goes through the local Post office.

So here in the UK it goes through Royal Mail, more specific Parcelforce.

The nice thing is that if the parcel came with Tracking (which Astak does) you can track it through the USPS site and your local carrier's site which is usually a little more accurate once it lands.

The 9 to 5 is a bit of pain, but Luckily there is a security desk in my building, where there is usually someone who can sigh for it.
