USPS is asking customers to mail early in the day (before 1 p.m.) and early in the season. Special early collections of mail from Post Offices and blue boxes will get holiday mail into the processing environment earlier and on its way sooner.
The Postal Service receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
