Grand Rapids MI - The United States Postal Service will observe President’s Day on Monday, February 16, 2015 a federal holiday. Post Offices across the Greater Michigan District (zip code prefixes 486-491 and 493-499) will be closed and there will be no mail delivery.  Customers needing postal services may use self-service kiosks at select locations.  

Self Service kiosks are located at the following Post Offices:

Mail will be collected from blue street collection boxes.  Postal officials advise anyone with stamped or metered mail ready for delivery, especially businesses, to drop this mail into a blue collection box instead of waiting to do so the following day.

Post Offices will reopen and mail delivery will resume on Tuesday, February 17, 2015.

The Postal Service receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
