Does us mail get delivered on saturday

In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) used to deliver mail on Saturdays, but that changed in 2013.

Prior to July 2, 2013, the USPS delivered mail six days a week, including Saturdays. However, due to financial difficulties and declining mail volumes, the USPS announced that it would no longer deliver mail on Saturdays, effective July 2, 2013.

Under the new schedule, the USPS would continue to deliver packages and other items on Saturdays, but regular mail delivery would be suspended. This change was intended to help the USPS reduce costs and improve efficiency.

However, in 2020, the USPS announced that it would restore Saturday delivery of mail and packages, effective August 1, 2020. This change was made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which had led to a surge in online shopping and package delivery.

So, to answer your question: yes, the USPS does deliver mail on Saturdays, although the types of mail and packages delivered may vary depending on your location and the specific services offered by your local post office.
