Getting mail is always something to look forward to. However, it can be challenging to remember which holidays the United States Postal Service (USPS) takes off, meaning no packages, letters, or even junk mail will be delivered to your mailbox.
As a friendly reminder, Juneteenth is coming up this Wednesday. This American holiday is one of the days when the United States Postal Service does not deliver mail.

Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery in the United States and has recently become a federal holiday. It is a day of reflection and celebration of freedom and equality.
Here’s a full list of holidays when the USPS does not deliver mail:
- New Year’s Day
- Martin Luther King Jr. Day
- Presidents’ Day
- Memorial Day
- Juneteenth
- July 4
- Labor Day
- Columbus Day
- Veterans Day
- Thanksgiving
- Christmas
In addition to USPS, banks, schools, and other government offices will also be closed on Juneteenth. It’s important to plan accordingly if you need services from these institutions.
On the other hand, you can still expect deliveries from UPS, FedEx, and Amazon Prime to continue as usual on Juneteenth. So, if you’re waiting for a package from these services, you won’t be left empty-handed.
Enjoy the holiday and take a moment to reflect on the significance of Juneteenth!
