Is the post office closed today?
The U.S. Postal Service will operate normally on Friday, according to a spokesperson. On Saturday, post offices will be closed, and regular mail won't be delivered.
Express mail will still be delivered on Saturday. Regular mail service will resume on Monday.
FedEx offices will be open on Friday and Saturday, but on Friday, its express service will have early on-call pickups in some areas and its ground economy deliveries may be delayed because of the Postal Service's observance of the holiday. On Saturday, its ground and ground economy services will be closed.
UPS stores will also be open on both days. Some deliveries will be delayed due to the Postal Service holiday.
