Detroit, 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 several Detroit area Post Offices will have Sunday retail hours for the three Sundays prior to Christmas, beginning Sunday December 3, 2017.
“We realize as the holidays get closer, opening on Sundays will help our customers with stamp purchases as well as mailing their holiday cards and packages,” says Lee Thompson, district manager.
“We expect to deliver an estimated 15 billion cards, letters and packages nationwide this year, and we’re hoping that opening retail operations on Sundays will help smooth the process,” she added.
The following post offices will be open Sundays Dec.3., Dec.10, and Dec 17:

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. This is to 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.
