Many local Post Offices have 24-hour self-service kiosks in the lobby, allowing customers to bypass lines.

Additionally, USPS.com allows people to print labels, print postage, and call for their carrier to pick up their package from their home or office without ever going to a Post Office.

Between now and Christmas, many neighborhoods will also see mail carriers delivering packages on Sunday.

The Postal Service recommends customers in the U.S. observe the following mailing and shipping deadlines to ensure that deliveries are made in time for Christmas:

MILITARY:
Nov. 6 — Military USPS Retail Ground service
Dec. 11 — Military Priority Mail and First-Class Mail services
Dec. 18 — Military USPS Priority Mail Express service

DOMESTIC:
Dec. 15 — Domestic Retail Ground service
Dec. 18 — First-Class letters and packages
Dec. 19 -– Priority Mail
Dec. 23 — Priority Mail Express

“We want to make this holiday season bright and easy for our customers and do our part to help reduce the stress that comes during the busiest time of the year,” said San Francisco District Manager Raj Sanghera. “We’ve delivering Priority Yule by adding more days and hours for our customers to bring us their mail, and our carriers are prepared to pick-up any click-n-ship pre-paid packages as they make their appointed rounds.”

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