USPS Holidays
Keep Post Office Holidays in Mind As You Prepare Your USPS Mailings & Shipments.
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.

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 2023, New Year’s Day fell on a Sunday so the following day, Monday, January 2, was treated as a holiday.
