CINCINNATI—Before heading to your local Post Office on July 3, check to make sure it’s open. Some Post Offices will be open regular hours, some will close at noon, some will have special hours and others will be closed the entire day. Mail will be delivered on July 3.

Revised hours will be posted at each Post Office. Commercial customers are asked to check with their business mail entry unit (BMEU) or local Postmaster for July 3 hours of operation.

Post Offices will be closed Saturday, July 4, and there will be no mail delivery except for Express Mail.

All Post Offices will be open and regular mail delivery will resume Monday, July 6.
