As such, they&#8217;ve recognized the need for regular deliveries and end deliveries. However, not all types of Mail are delivered on weekends; you&#8217;ll usually find USPS delivering Priority Mail Express, also known as the USPS Overnight, and some Amazon packages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even though USPS might deliver some of your items on Sundays, do not expect your local post office to deliver ordinary first-class Mail on weekends. Typically, you must wait till Monday before receiving that type of Mail. However, if you&#8217;re residing in an area with a high number of Mail, the post office might decide to offer regular mail delivery on Sundays. It would help if you understood that USPS is always trying their best to ensure Mail is flowing and there&#8217;s as limited a backlog as possible &#8211; that&#8217;s why local post offices made decisions on whether to deliver Mail on Sundays or not. Therefore, whether you&#8217;ll receive your Mail on a Sunday depends on the type of Mail, location, and the Mail flow in your local post office.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>Read More about <\/strong><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postscanmail.com\/blog\/us-postal-service-holidays.html\"><strong class=\"bread-current bread-9167\" title=\"U.S. Postal Service Holidays in 2022: Is the Post Office Open?\">U.S. Postal Service Holidays in 2022: Is the Post Office Open?<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_USPS_Priority_Mail_Express_Deliver_on_Sunday\"><\/span><strong>Does USPS Priority Mail Express Deliver on Sunday?\u00a0<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As stated above, USPS Priority Mail Express is one of the types of Mail delivered on Sundays on the condition that you shipped it overnight. Wondering why Priority Mail Express got delivered on Sundays? That&#8217;s because they&#8217;re sent through Amazon!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Priority Mail Express is undoubtedly the fastest way to ship your packages via USPS. However, you should note that it starts at $26 and charges added fee for weekend deliveries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Quick reminder &#8211; Priority Mail Express isn&#8217;t the same as Priority Mail; the latter isn&#8217;t delivered on Weekends. The main difference between the two is their cost and shipping time. The former is an overnight delivery, while the latter ships within 1-3 days. Therefore, we can say that Priority Mail Express was designed to offer a faster mail delivery option to customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike Priority Mail, USPS Overnight (Priority Mail Express) includes insurance and tracking. Also, there&#8217;s a money-back guarantee if you don&#8217;t receive your Mail after 6:30 pm on the expected delivery date. This service is offered to commercial and residential customers, and Priority Mail Express International offers fast shipping within 3-5 business days to over 190 countries across the globe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_USPS_Deliver_First_Class_Packages_on_Sunday\"><\/span><strong>Does USPS Deliver First Class Packages on Sunday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, USPS doesn&#8217;t deliver First Class mail and Packages on Sunday. The first class mail includes regular Mail like letters, bills, and other stamped mail that don&#8217;t need to be treated as an emergency.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, USPS designed the first class mail category for items that aren&#8217;t to be delivered in a rush. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s a non-economy option that delivers within <strong>3<\/strong> business days. For this reason, First Class mail isn&#8217;t considered a priority to be delivered on Sundays.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_USPS_Deliver_Retail_Ground_Mail_on_Sunday\"><\/span><strong>Does USPS Deliver Retail Ground Mail on Sunday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No. USPS doesn&#8217;t deliver Retail Ground Mail on Sunday.\u00a0 This type of Mail is typically used for single-piece Mail and can be any mailing material that doesn&#8217;t have to be mailed as priority or first class mail; as such, it is mainly used for shipping merchandise and gifts.\u00a0 The retail ground is the most economical mailing option with USPS, with prices starting from $8.50 and a delivery period between <strong>2-5<\/strong> business days.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_USPS_Deliver_Amazon_Packages_on_Sunday\"><\/span><strong>Does USPS Deliver Amazon Packages on Sunday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amazon signed a deal with USPS in 2013, and in 2021, the retail giant decided to extend delivery to its customers to 7 days a week. To enjoy weekend deliveries, you don&#8217;t need to pay $79 to be an Amazon Prime member. Today, all Amazon customers within the U.S can get Sunday deliveries. This is nothing short of good news to Amazon avid shoppers!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Time_Does_USPS_Deliver_on_Sunday\"><\/span><strong>What Time Does USPS Deliver on Sunday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The USPS Sunday delivery hours vary depending on the type of Mail. Priority Mail Express, the USPS&#8217;s quickest delivery service, can reach your destination as <strong>early as 10:30 am<\/strong>. The latest time that USPS guarantees is <strong>by 6:30 pm<\/strong>; if you didn&#8217;t receive your Mail by then, you could file for a full refund.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you&#8217;re expecting a package from Amazon, it can be delivered as late as 8, 9, or even 10 pm. However, USPS tries to deliver these Mail as early as possible, and you will likely receive your Mail by noon. If you&#8217;re an Amazon Prime Member, you can order products on Friday and get your packages delivered on Saturday or Sunday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_kind_of_Packages_can_I_Expect_to_Receive_on_Sundays\"><\/span><strong>What kind of Packages can I Expect to Receive on Sundays?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Decisions to deliver on Sunday take place at the local level- it&#8217;s totally up to your local post office to decide whether they&#8217;ll deliver on Sunday and the types of packages to be delivered. However, when there&#8217;s a high volume of Mail and the post office fears a backlog, they can decide to deliver all types of packages during weekends, especially during holidays and peak seasons.\u00a0 Otherwise, the only packages you can receive on Sundays are Priority Mail Express and Amazon Packages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>Read More about<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.postscanmail.com\/blog\/informed-delivery-by-usps-what-is-it-and-how-does-it-work.html\"><strong class=\"bread-current bread-9493\" title=\"Informed Delivery by USPS [Ultimate Guide]\">Informed Delivery by USPS [Ultimate Guide]<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_I_know_if_USPS_package_delivery_is_in_my_location\"><\/span><strong>How do I know if USPS package delivery is in my location?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"auto\" data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">The USPS website offers a service to track packages.

Other than these, you can contact your post office to clarify whether they offer Sunday delivery or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_does_USPS_not_deliver_on_Sundayspecial_cases\"><\/span><strong>Why does USPS not deliver on Sunday(special cases)?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sundays are generally off days for all workers in the United States, and USPS staff aren&#8217;t an exception. However, USPS isn&#8217;t completely off on Sundays; what they don&#8217;t deliver standard mail like letters, magazines, newspapers, bills, and other mail that aren&#8217;t needed urgently. That isn&#8217;t bad at all! Let the mailman have some rest too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_does_USPS_Sunday_delivery_cost\"><\/span><strong>How much does USPS Sunday delivery cost?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The USPS delivery cost on Sunday depends on your package. The typical cost of shipping a Priority Mail Express starts at $26.75 without including the Sunday Delivery fees. If your package is delivered on a Sunday, you&#8217;ll have to pay an extra $12.50 fee. You&#8217;ll be charged around $40 to deliver your Priority Mail Express on a Sunday. However, you&#8217;ll pay the standard shipping fee if it&#8217;s an Amazon package.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_USPS_deliver_on_Saturday\"><\/span><strong>Does USPS deliver on Saturday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Saturday is a typical day for USPS, just like Monday to Friday. This means that almost all types of USPS delivery options, including &#8211; first-class Mail, retail ground Mail, Priority Mail, Priority Mail Express, First Class Package, and others offer Saturday deliveries. Mail carriers generally deliver packages between 9 am &#8211; 5 am on Saturdays,s, regardless of the type of delivery service used. However, most packages are delivered around 2 pm except during peak seasons when deliveries can be as late as 6:30 pm.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Priority Mail Express is the only delivery service that allows you to choose Saturday as your expected delivery date. And like in Sunday deliveries, if you didn&#8217;t receive your overnight packages by 6:30 pm on Saturday, USPS will offer you a full refund.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you use other delivery services, some factors will determine whether your packages get delivered on Saturday or not. They include &#8211; estimated delivery time and the distance between the last warehouse your packages were placed in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_does_USPS_Saturday_delivery_cost\"><\/span><strong>How much does USPS Saturday delivery cost?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The USPS overnight delivery cost heavily depends on the service you&#8217;re using. Generally, USPS doesn&#8217;t charge extra fees for Saturday deliveries as it is regular delivery date for mail carriers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, First Class Mail and Package delivery start at <strong>$4<\/strong>, the cost of retail ground mail starts at <strong>$7.70<\/strong>, while the cost of Priority Mail Express starts at $26.75. However, the total you&#8217;ll be charged for a package delivery depends on the weight of the package and the destination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_tracking_and_insurance_included_in_USPS_weekend_services\"><\/span><strong>Are tracking and insurance included in USPS weekend services?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USPS offers package tracking to all weekend delivery services. However, the case is different with insurance\u2014an automatic <strong>$50 &#8211; $100<\/strong> for all weekend deliveries. However, you can purchase additional insurance at a per-pound rate from USPS.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_post_office_stations_open_on_Sunday\"><\/span><strong>Are post office stations open on Sunday?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USPS offers limited delivery services on Sunday, but their post offices are closed that Day. That&#8217;s the only Day full-time USPS workers don&#8217;t work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USPS regards Mondays to Saturdays as regular business days and Sundays as rest days. You can&#8217;t send anything to the post office on Sunday. However, some online services are available on Sundays, including scheduling pick-up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re still wondering whether your post office is open on Sundays, Please check the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mypostofficelocation.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USPS post office locator<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It provides all you need to know about your post office&#8217;s operating hours and services. You can find out whether the post office is open on Saturday and Sunday and even get a driving location if that&#8217;s your first visit. If the post office close to you isn&#8217;t operating on Weekends, you can check for other nearby stations that might be open if you need to send a mail urgently.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_Pick_Up_My_Mail_At_The_Post_Office_On_the_Weekend\"><\/span><strong>Can I Pick Up My Mail At The Post Office On the Weekend?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If it is a Saturday, you can pick up your Mail or package as most post offices are open on Saturdays, though they offer services for a short time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In most cases, local post offices open by 9 am on Saturdays and close by 1 pm, which is far shorter than their standard operating hours on other business days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can still enter the post office and get your Mail or package from your PO box or parcel locker even if no one is at the desk &#8211; but this depends on your post office and how they work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, you can&#8217;t pick up Mail from a post office on Sundays since it&#8217;s closed. Though some post offices offer mail deliveries on Sundays to make mail flow more efficient, you still can&#8217;t find the post office station open.
