Does mail go out on veterans day
In the United States, Veterans Day is a federal holiday, which means that many government offices, including the United States Postal Service (USPS), are closed on November 11th.
However, the USPS typically does not suspend mail delivery on Veterans Day, except in certain circumstances. Here are some exceptions:
- No regular mail delivery: While the USPS is open, there may be no regular mail delivery on Veterans Day, as many postal employees may be taking the day off or working reduced hours.
- Limited services: Some post offices may have limited hours or services on Veterans Day, so it's best to check with your local post office before heading out.
- No package delivery: Package delivery services, such as Priority Mail and Parcel Post, may be delayed or suspended on Veterans Day, depending on the carrier and the specific service.
- Special delivery: In some cases, the USPS may offer special delivery services on Veterans Day, such as delivery of priority mail or packages to military personnel and their families.
To confirm mail delivery on Veterans Day, you can:
- Check with your local post office for their hours and services.
- Visit the USPS website (usps.com) for information on holiday hours and delivery schedules.
- Contact your local carrier or delivery service to confirm delivery status.
Remember to plan ahead and allow extra time for mail delivery on Veterans Day, as services may be limited.
