On official postal holidays, regular USPS retail-window service and regular mail delivery are generally affected. Certain premium or special services may operate under separate rules.
Building access is not the same as retail-window service. A Post Office lobby or PO Box area can have different access hours, so local facility information remains important even when the national holiday is known.
