Does mail run on thanksgiving day
In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) has a modified schedule for Thanksgiving Day, which is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November every year.
Here's what you can expect:
- No regular mail delivery: The USPS does not deliver regular mail on Thanksgiving Day, which is a federal holiday.
- Limited services: Some USPS locations may be open on Thanksgiving Day, but with limited hours and services. These locations may include post offices, mail centers, and some retail locations.
- No package delivery: The USPS does not deliver packages on Thanksgiving Day, except for packages that were already in transit and are being delivered by private carriers, such as UPS and FedEx.
- Special delivery services: Some USPS services, like Priority Mail Express, may still be available on Thanksgiving Day, but with limited hours and availability.
- Post offices closed: Most USPS post offices are closed on Thanksgiving Day, but some may have limited hours or be open for a few hours.
It's always a good idea to check with your local post office or the USPS website to confirm their hours and services before Thanksgiving Day.
