Also on Thanksgiving Day, UPS pickup and delivery services will be suspended, except for UPS Express Critical. That service is available 24 hours a day, all 365 days a year. Similarly, FedEx will change its delivery schedule, meaning express delivery could be delayed for the two days after Thanksgiving.

USPS runs on the federal holidays' schedule—so, you can expect USPS facilities to be closed on most major holidays and three-day weekends. For the rest of 2024, the only other holiday when mail will not be delivered is Christmas Day: Wednesday, December 25, 2024.

As Thanksgiving approaches, the U.S. Postal Service is advising customers to mail their Christmas gifts early to ensure timely delivery. Philip
