Does post office pick up mail on sunday

In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) typically does not deliver mail on Sundays, except for certain circumstances. Here are some exceptions:

  1. Priority Mail Express: USPS delivers Priority Mail Express packages on Sundays, as it is a guaranteed overnight service.
  2. Sunday Delivery: In some areas, USPS offers Sunday delivery for packages and mail, but this is not a standard service. It's usually available in urban areas with high volumes of mail and packages.
  3. Special Events: USPS may deliver mail on Sundays for special events, such as holidays, elections, or natural disasters.
  4. Rural Areas: In some rural areas, USPS may deliver mail on Sundays, especially if there is no regular mail delivery on weekdays.

However, it's important to note that regular mail delivery, including First-Class Mail, Standard Mail, and Periodicals, is not typically delivered on Sundays.

If you're unsure about Sunday delivery in your area, you can:

  1. Check with your local post office: Visit your local post office or call them to ask about Sunday delivery options.
  2. Use the USPS website: You can use the USPS website's "Zip Code Lookup" tool to check if Sunday delivery is available in your area.
  3. Contact the USPS Customer Service: You can also contact the USPS Customer Service at 1-800-275-8777 to ask about Sunday delivery in your area.

Remember, Sunday delivery is not a standard service, and availability may vary depending on your location and the type of mail you're sending or receiving.
