Is the Post Office open today (July 4, 2025?) Will mail run?

The check may be in the mail but don’t look for it to arrive today.

Post offices will be closed on Friday, July 4 in observance of the Independence Day holiday. There will be no mail delivery or Post Office Box service and post offices will be closed. All services will resume Saturday, July 5th.

Some post offices will continue to provide access to Self-Service Kiosks. The ATM-like kiosks, which accept debit and credit cards only, can handle 80% of the transactions conducted at retail counters such as buying stamps, mailing a parcel or shipping an urgent letter or package by Express or Priority Mail, USPS said.

To find SSK locations, customers can go to www.usps.com.
