Is mail delivered on new years day
In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) typically does not deliver mail on New Year's Day (January 1st). This is because New Year's Day is a federal holiday, and the USPS observes federal holidays.
According to the USPS website, the following holidays are observed and mail delivery is suspended:
- New Year's Day (January 1st)
- Martin Luther King Jr. Day (third Monday in January)
- Presidents' Day (third Monday in February)
- Memorial Day (last Monday in May)
- Independence Day (July 4th)
- Labor Day (first Monday in September)
- Columbus Day (second Monday in October)
- Veterans Day (November 11th)
- Thanksgiving Day (fourth Thursday in November)
- Christmas Day (December 25th)
However, it's worth noting that some private carriers, such as UPS and FedEx, may still deliver packages on New Year's Day, depending on their specific holiday schedules and delivery routes.
If you're expecting a package or mail delivery on New Year's Day, it's best to check with the sender or the carrier's website to confirm their holiday schedule and delivery status.
