CHARLOTTE, NC — This Saturday, December 20, is the recommended deadline for Priority Mail service in time for Christmas delivery. Several Charlotte Post Offices are extending their Saturday retail hours to give customers a little extra time to finish their shopping and get those cards and packages in the mail.
“They’ve finished they’re shopping; now it’s time for the shipping,” said Charlotte Postmaster Le Gretta Ross-Rawlins. “Customers have been in the stores all week, and now they’re looking for ways to get those packages in the mail. The Postal Service is here for them.”
