Presidents’ Day is fast approaching so it might be helpful to give a little refresher on one basic principle of this federal holiday.
Does The United States Deliver Mail On Presidents’ Day?
This is a very good question in case you have an urgent letter to send because you’ve been living in the 1950s and there’s no e-mail to be found. Here’s the answer: No, the United States Postal Service will not be delivering mail on Presidents’ Day (Monday, February 20). In addition, all post offices and federal offices will be closed.
This means that both businesses and households will not be receiving mail or USPS packages as it is a federal holiday. However, both UPS and FedEx will provide normal pickup and delivery services on Presidents’ Day.
For future reference, here are all the holidays in which the USPS will not be open:
- New Year’s Day
- Christmas
- Thanksgiving
- Labor Day
- Independence Day (July 4th)
- Presidents Day
- Martin Luther King Jr. Day
- Columbus Day
- Memorial Day
Happy Presidents’ Day!
