WASHINGTON, May 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The U.S. Postal Service will observe Memorial Day on Monday, May 25. All Post Office locations will be closed. Regular mail delivery and retail services will resume on Tuesday, May 26.
Customers are reminded that when Post Offices are closed, they can still access many postal products and services through usps.com and self-service kiosks available in select lobbies nationwide. These kiosks feature:
- Postage printing for Priority Mail, Priority Mail Express and international shipping;
- Stamps for purchase;
