Does the mail deliver on weekends

In the United States, the answer to this question depends on the type of mail and the location.

First-Class Mail: The United States Postal Service (USPS) typically does not deliver First-Class Mail on Saturdays, except for Priority Mail Express and Priority Mail. This means that letters, bills, and other First-Class Mail items are not delivered on Saturdays.

Priority Mail Express and Priority Mail: These services are the exceptions to the rule. Priority Mail Express and Priority Mail are delivered 7 days a week, including Saturdays.

Other Services: The USPS also delivers other services on Saturdays, including:

Private Carriers: Private carriers like UPS and FedEx typically do not deliver on Sundays, but they may deliver on Saturdays. However, this can vary depending on the specific service and location.

Rural Areas: In some rural areas, mail delivery may be limited to weekdays only. This is because rural routes may not have the same level of mail volume as urban areas, and the USPS may not have the resources to deliver mail on weekends.

Holidays: The USPS does not deliver mail on federal holidays, including Christmas, New Year's Day, and Thanksgiving.

It's always a good idea to check with your local post office or the USPS website for specific information on mail delivery in your area.
