Does mail get sent out on saturday

In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) typically does not deliver mail on Saturdays, except for Priority Mail Express and some special cases. Here's a breakdown:

• Regular mail: USPS does not deliver regular mail, such as first-class mail, priority mail, and periodicals, on Saturdays.
• Priority Mail Express: This is the only mail service that is delivered on Saturdays. Priority Mail Express is a guaranteed overnight delivery service that is available 365 days a year, including Saturdays.
• Holidays: USPS does not deliver mail on federal holidays, including Christmas, New Year's Day, and Thanksgiving.
• Special cases: In some cases, USPS may deliver mail on Saturdays, such as:
  • Package delivery: USPS may deliver packages on Saturdays, especially during peak holiday seasons.
  • Special events: USPS may deliver mail on Saturdays for special events, such as concerts, festivals, or sporting events.
  • Rural areas: In some rural areas, USPS may deliver mail on Saturdays due to limited delivery options during the week.

It's worth noting that private carriers, such as FedEx and UPS, may deliver packages on Saturdays, but this is not a guarantee and may depend on the specific service and location.

If you're unsure about mail delivery on a specific Saturday, you can contact your local post office or check the USPS website for more information.
