|Updated:

Thanksgiving is Thursday, Nov. 26, and it’s a federal holiday.

That means the mail is not being delivered. Post offices are closed down as well. Schools, public libraries, and other government institutions are closed as well.

Not all mail operations are back to normal Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving.

The UPS considers Black Friday and Thanksgiving “holidays,” meaning there’s no service Black Friday, Nov. 27.

FedEx is different. It does not deliver on Thanksgiving, but on Black Friday, it has modified hours and business for its Express service, Ground, and Home Delivery services are normal. Freight service is closed on Black Friday.
