Can I schedule a specific delivery time with USPS?

Asked a year ago
No, you cannot schedule a specific delivery time with USPS. The United States Postal Service does not offer the option to schedule a specific delivery time for regular mail or packages. USPS operates on a delivery route that is determined by their logistics system. The delivery time can vary depending on factors such as volume, weather conditions, and distance. However, USPS does offer certain services that allow you to have more control over the delivery, such as Priority Mail Express, which provides overnight delivery guarantee and a specified delivery time for an additional fee. It is advisable to track your package online using USPS tracking tools to get an estimated delivery date or use services like Informed Delivery to receive notifications about incoming mail.
