Holiday will not disrupt mail delivery

Thursday, July 02, 2009 |
All post offices will be open on Friday, but many will shorten retail lobby hours and close at noon for the holiday weekend.
Regular mail delivery for July 3 will be unaffected by the change.
In post offices where retail counters and access to post office boxes are co-located, PO box mail access will only be available until noon in offices closing early, a press release said.
Revised hours will be posted at each office and commercial customers are asked to check with their bulk mail acceptance unit for Friday hours. Customers may call 1-800-ASK-USPS for information about specific post offices. In addition, mail should be deposited into blue collection mailboxes by noon for early pick-up on Friday.
Offices will be closed Saturday, July 4. Sunday/Holiday Express Mail only will be delivered on the Fourth of July. All Post Offices will be open and regular mail delivery will resume Monday.
