Holland, MI — The U.S. Postal Service is committed to making sure the holiday season will be accommodating for our customers and this even includes Sundays.

Once again the Holland Post Office will have Sunday Retail hours for the three Sundays prior to Christmas, beginning Sunday, December 4th.

“We realize as the holidays get closer, opening on Sundays will help our customers with mailing their holiday cards and packages along with  stamp purchases”,  said Sabrina Todd, Media Coordinator for the U.S. Postal Service, Greater Michigan District.  

“We expect to deliver an estimated 16 billion cards, letters and packages nationwide this year, and we’re hoping that opening retail operations on Sundays will help smooth the process”, she further added.

The Holland  Post Office located at 190 E. 8th St will be open the following dates/times:

And with the increased mail volume the Postal Service will be delivering parcels daily and often at times outside of the regular delivery hours. 

This means you may see postal employees delivering packages earlier in the morning and later in the evening, in their postal vehicles.   As we get further into the holiday season, this will include Sundays as well.   The reason we are doing this is to serve and provide our customers the best holiday experience possible.

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