parcel tracking
Package location service
Parcel tracking is the system that lets you monitor a package's journey from sender to recipient.
Shipping companies assign tracking numbers that update as parcels pass through sorting facilities and delivery stages: I checked the parcel tracking and it says delivery is scheduled for tomorrow.
The term covers both the technology and the act of checking on a shipment's status.
