When are postal holidays for USPS

Except for postal holidays, the USPS is at your service. Be aware of the federal holiday structure so you can plan your shipment schedule accordingly.


The USPS follows a federal holiday structure in which Post Office buildings are closed and shipping services are not available.


Since postal holidays may differ from other bank, school and local government holidays, make sure to take note of the following and plan your shipping needs around them.


USPS Holidays 2020: USPS i.e. The United States Postal Service offers postal services in the United States and over 220 countries around the world. If you are using USPS services then you must be very interested in knowing the day when the postal services are closed. USPS observes a holiday on Sundays. Apart from that, there are also 10 other holidays on which the post offices are closed for operations.


If you’re preparing a shipment or expecting a delivery to arrive then make sure to check the USPS holidays 2020 first in order to see the days off. USPS services are open for a majority of the year apart from the following federal holidays.




Note: When a federal holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the legal public holiday will be the closest weekday to the actual holiday. For example, in 2017, New Year’s Day fell on a Sunday so the following day, Monday, January 2, was treated as a holiday; USPS did not operate on that day.


Also, during this Holiday season, here are some friendly tips we can give you:


Even with the right packing precautions, it’s always safer to buy items you know can survive a bumpy trip through the mail. Apparel, shoes and most toys are a safe bet.


Also, remember some states restrict what items you can send in the mail. Pay attention to these rules, especially if you are shipping fruits and veggies. Also, certain batteries, liquids and plants may be restricted depending on the package’s destination, so be sure to ask about prohibited items before you ship your gifts.




Don’t forget flat-rate boxes: Flat-rate boxes come in a variety of sizes and can be a money-saver when shipping small, but heavy gifts.


U.S. Postal Service both offer this option, which allows you to pack as much as you can into a box and pay one price. Weight doesn’t matter.
