If you miss a UPS package delivery, can you pick it up somewhere?

I looked at their website and I can't find any information on picking up a missed package (instead of waiting for them to try again).

All they have is information on scheduling a "pickup" for delivery.
Thanks!

Yeah, but you need to call them and talk to them I think, so they don't put it on a truck for delivery later.

well, you may be able to pick it up whereever they store it. Did they leave a notice for you? Or leave a sign for them next time saying they can leave it, but make sure you sign it.

You can pick it up at their delivery warehouse but you need to let them know in advance. Usually 1 - 2 days in advance.

Most of the time, no. Did they leave you a slip? If you're not going to be there for the next pickup, leave a note asking them to drop it off at the pickup center near you so you can get it. Or, if you don't work far from your house, ask them to deliver it to your work ;) My UPS lady did that for me. SHe delivered my Dell LCD to my work (Gateway Country) ;)
