It's worth noting that while post offices and mail delivery services are closed on these holidays, some services may still be available, such as:
- Online services: You can still access your USPS account online and perform tasks like tracking packages, paying bills, and ordering supplies.
- Self-service kiosks: Some post offices have self-service kiosks that allow you to perform tasks like buying stamps and sending packages.
- Private carriers: Private carriers like UPS and FedEx may still operate on holidays, but their hours and services may be limited.
It's always a good idea to check with your local post office or the USPS website to confirm their holiday hours and services before planning your mail-related activities.
