Does the mail (USPS) keep moving on July 4th?

Question

I have a package that might be shipping today or tomorrow, with the 4th coming up, will my package at least keep moving or will it just stop at where ever it is?

I ordered my package using priority mail too, and it usually takes two days for things to get to my house.

Answer 1

you will lose a day with the holiday and then another for Sunday.  You won't see it until Monday.

Answer 2

You may see it Saturday.

Answer 3

damnit this answers my question too... i ordered an ocarina from stlocarina.com... i better get it saturday...

Answer 4

All mail stops on the 4th

Answer 5

USPS.com says that with priority mail, you'll get it on a business day.  Since the 4th of July is a Federal Holiday, all parcels are on hold because everyone who works for the federal government, gets the day off.  But you never know, track your package on USPS.  But I'm pretty sure that everything is on hold for the holiday.

Answer 6

The mail stops on July 4 because it is a federal holiday.

Have a good one!
