USPS 2023 Holiday Shipping and Mailing Deadlines | Certified Mail LabelsThis week, the United States Postal Service (USPS) published the holiday shipping deadlines for the upcoming season. Those who plan to send gifts, cards, and good tidings via the U.S. Postal Service will be pleased to hear that surcharges will not be instated.

Do keep in mind, the closer you get to Christmas Eve and Christmas day the more expensive the mailing will be. To ensure day delivery in time for Christmas, priority shipping services may be necessary.
