Plan ahead: All US Postal Service locations set to close, delay deliveries for a day in October

All US Postal Service locations are scheduled to close on Monday, Oct. 12, resulting in a one-day delay for deliveries. Regular mail services will be suspended for the duration of that day and are set to resume on Tuesday, Oct. 13. Consequently, Americans are encouraged to plan ahead if they require mail services around that specific time to avoid any potential disruptions caused by the temporary closure of all postal facilities across the country.
