The majority of post offices are open Monday through Saturday, with Sundays always being a closed day. Customers at some post office sites will only be able to access their mailboxes on Saturdays, meaning they won’t have access to the other goods and services provided by the USPS.

If a particular place is open on a Saturday, it most likely will only be open for a short period of time. On Monday through Friday, they typically close between 11 a.m. and noon, while on Saturdays, they typically close from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Customers can still use the drop boxes outside the post office if they need to send something out after hours or on holidays.
