(WHTM) — Presidents Day is on Monday, Feb. 19 this year. Many schools, banks, and federal offices will be closed — so what does that mean for mail?
Since the United States Postal Service is operated by the federal government, you will not be receiving mail on the day.
The next holiday that will affect your USPS mail delivery is Memorial Day on May 29, according to USPS. After Presidents Day, there will be eight more holidays in 2024 in which you don’t have to check your mailbox:
- Memorial Day: Monday, May 27
- Juneteenth National Independence Day: Wednesday, June 19
- Independence Day: Thursday, July 4
- Labor Day: Monday, Sept. 2
- Columbus Day: Monday, Oct. 14
- Veterans Day: Monday, Nov. 11
- Thanksgiving: Thursday, Nov. 28
- Christmas Day: Wednesday, Dec. 25
When it comes to other delivery companies like UPS and FedEx, these companies will deliver mail and packages as normal.
The next holiday UPS and FedEx will observe is Easter, while Amazon’s next observed holiday is Memorial Day.
As we mentioned, most major banks will also be closed on Monday for Presidents Day.
Presidents Day is always observed on the third Monday in February. Next year, it’ll fall on Feb. 17.
