TAMPA — The U.S. Postal Service will observe Columbus Day on Monday, October 12. All Post Office locations will be closed. Regular mail delivery and retail services will resume on Tuesday, October 13.

Customers are reminded that when Post Offices are closed, they can still visit usps.com to order stamps and free USPS boxes, and to access services such as Hold Mail, Change of Address, PO Box rental or renewal, and Click-N-Ship to print pre-paid labels. In addition, self-service kiosks are available in select lobbies nationwide. These kiosks feature:

• Postage printing for Priority Mail, Priority Mail Express and international shipping;
• Stamps for purchase;
• Ability to weigh and mail packages; and
• Package tracking

As USPS modernizes its retail locations, more self-service options are becoming available at more locations and may include:

• Rapid Dropoff Stations for customers who have already created and printed labels online;
• An option for customers to print shipping labels from a merchant-provided QR code; and
• USPS Smart Lockers that allow customers to both drop off and pick up

Many self-service kiosks are available 24/7, offering customers flexibility and convenience even when Post Offices are closed.
