The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is urging folks to wait no
longer to mail their holiday letters and packages, with Monday, Dec. 14--just
one week from today--expected to be the busiest mailing day of the season and
Monday, Dec. 21, the busiest delivery day.
“That means hundreds of thousands of cards, letters, and
packages will be in the mail stream,” USPS said.
“For those last minute procrastinators, there’s only 10
days until Christmas” Chesterton Postmaster Jim Gordon said. “It’s time to
get those holiday cards, letters, and packages in the mail.”
“Your cards and packages are important to you,” Gordon
added. “They are important to USPS, too. We want to make sure your greetings
and gifts reach their destination in time for the holiday.”
““Remember,” Gordon said, “postal blue collection boxes
are safe, secure, and scanned each time mail is picked up to ensure timely
collection and more efficient processing of cards and letters.”
