Mail delivery on 4th of july

A question about mail delivery on a special day!

In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) typically observes federal holidays, including the 4th of July (Independence Day). This means that mail delivery is affected on this day.

Here's what you can expect:

  1. No regular mail delivery: The USPS does not deliver regular mail on July 4th. This includes first-class mail, priority mail, and package delivery.
  2. Limited services: While there is no regular mail delivery, some USPS services may still be available, such as:
    • Priority Mail Express: This service is available 365 days a year, including holidays.
    • Post Office locations: Many post offices will be open on July 4th, but hours may vary. You can check with your local post office to confirm their hours.
  3. Delayed delivery: If you have a package or mail that was scheduled to be delivered on July 4th, it may be delayed until the next business day.
  4. Special delivery options: Some private courier services, like UPS and FedEx, may still deliver packages on July 4th, but this is not guaranteed and may depend on the specific service and location.

It's always a good idea to check with your local post office or the USPS website for specific information about mail delivery on July 4th.
