Veterans day holiday mail delivery
On Veterans Day, which is celebrated on November 11th every year, the United States Postal Service (USPS) observes a federal holiday. This means that mail delivery is affected, and here's what you can expect:
Regular Mail Delivery:
- The USPS will not deliver regular mail on Veterans Day, which falls on November 11th.
- Mail that is typically delivered on a Monday will be delivered on Tuesday instead.
Priority Mail and Express Mail:
- Priority Mail and Express Mail services will be available on Veterans Day, but with some exceptions.
- Priority Mail Express will be delivered as usual, but Priority Mail may experience delays.
Post Office Hours:
- Most post offices will be closed on Veterans Day, but some may have limited hours or be open for a few hours.
- It's best to check with your local post office for their specific hours before heading out.
Online Services:
- You can still use online services like Click-N-Ship, USPS.com, and mobile apps to manage your mail and packages.
- Online services will be available as usual, but you may experience delays in processing and delivery.
Special Services:
- Some special services like passport acceptance, money orders, and lottery ticket sales may be available at select post offices, but hours may be limited.
Tips:
- If you need to send or receive mail on Veterans Day, consider using a private carrier like UPS or FedEx, as they may not be affected by the holiday.
- Plan ahead and send your mail a day or two earlier to ensure timely delivery.
- Check with your local post office for any specific holiday hours or services before heading out.
Remember to show your appreciation for our nation's veterans on this special day!
