The USPS will close for 24 hours next week and again later this month — so if you want to send something out or need to check the mail — plan ahead.

The United States Postal Service will be pausing its mail service next Tuesday, November 11, but Americans can expect minimal delays to their typical mail schedule. The reason for the one-day pause is due to Veterans Day. As a federal holiday, the USPS suspends most services and will open up the next day, November 12.

The United States Postal Service says it has made significant investments to prepare for the upcoming 2025 holiday shipping season.

A United States Postal Service employee, who also previously served in the Air Force, died after he became stuck in a mail-handling machine at a USPS depot just outside of Detroit.

The fiancée of an Allen Park postal worker who was killed by a machine at the facility slammed the “gross” and “inhumane” statement from USPS about his death.
