LPT: You may be able to correct a mistyped address with USPS Delivery instructions

Post Body
If you mistype an address to USPS and the intended address is on the same mail route, you may be able to use delivery instructions to reroute the package to another address for free.
You can do this by entering your tracking number into the usps website, clicking delivery instructions, signing in, entering the original mistyped address, and then you can leave an instruction to leave the package with a neighbor for free provided it is on the same route as the original package.
NOTE: I am not a USPS employee nor can I guarantee this works at all times.
