Does mail move on memorial day

In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) observes Memorial Day, which is a federal holiday, and adjusts its mail delivery schedule accordingly.

Here's what you can expect:

  1. No regular mail delivery: On Memorial Day, the USPS does not deliver regular mail, including first-class mail, priority mail, and package delivery.
  2. Limited services: While there is no regular mail delivery, some USPS services may still be available, such as:
    • Priority Mail Express: This service is available 365 days a year, including holidays, and will be delivered as usual.
    • Post Office locations: Most post offices will be open on Memorial Day, but hours may vary. You can check the hours of your local post office before heading out.
  3. No mail pickup: Mail carriers will not be collecting mail on Memorial Day, so you won't need to worry about putting out your mail on this day.
  4. Delayed delivery: If you have a package scheduled for delivery on Memorial Day, it may be delayed until the next business day.

Keep in mind that these rules apply to the USPS's regular mail services. Private carriers, such as UPS and FedEx, may have their own holiday schedules and delivery policies.

Remember to plan ahead and check with your local post office or carrier if you have any specific questions or concerns about mail delivery on Memorial Day.
